Corr.:
Somebody says javac does, since jdk 1.5:

"Everything comes with a reason. Since jdk1.5, both java and javac 
recurse the manifest classpath of a jar on the java classpath."

Oki, Doki, thats colo. So for after 1.5, with the right basic
tools, Sven Köhlers advice is valid. Although there are still
some reasons for option 2), also from the above blog:

"Conclusion? Well, I don't know what to say here, but this looks 
something similiar to the windows DLL hell problem. And it was
called DLL 'Hell' for a reason."
