As long as you are comparing the maven artifact resolver task using same 
version as whatever Maven and dependency plugin you are using .. the results 
will be the same.

Resolution changed over time so older Maven versions and older Maven plugin 
have these difference.

Maven Ant Tasks is VERY old and uses an very old resolving mechanism .. so all 
bets are off.
