Multiple compiles in single build can cause this.

I am just saying that if you do multiple compiles and separate bin
dir tree then you will need to have bin in classpath.

The problem you mention is real and need to be handled. There are
ways to do that via various build scripts from OS shell to ant to
newer build frameworks.
