The problem is that ant needs to find your classes in the root classloader but by default they are in the sub-classloader. http://maven.apache.org/maven-1.x/using/developing-plugins.html#Plugin_dependencies A solution is to create another project for your ant task and to define in your plugin a dependency with the root classloader.
I have no other idea.
