maven-jibx-plugin 1.2 Binding Error due to issue with Value Object

I have a servicemix-bean that requires an XML mapping to a value object. I created the appropriate XML mapping class and added it as a dependency to the POM.xml for that service unit.

The value object that respresents the mapping is in a common.jar that is in my local Maven repository and is clearly being read/found since it looks like it read the class to get the type of each field (see output below).

I can resolve the issue by making a copy of the value object class and placing it within my SU src/main/java directory structure. But that means I need to maintain 2 identical copies of the same class in order to get this SU to build properly. I tried several versions of the maven-jibx-plugin. The last one I tried and is represented by the output below was 1.2.1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
