A question: for our modified activation to take over, it would need to
be in endorsed dir, right?
not necessary as jboss modules determinate what classes
are loaded an
what not. In this case path javax/activation is not part of javax.api
module, so to make use of jdk's activation you have to modify javax.api
module or if you don't do that it won't find it on class path unless you
also depend to javax.activation module.
