You may have already addressed this, and to be honest, I haven’t spent a lot of time researching the issue, but…

Does ME have a way to differentiate between build time and runtime dependencies? As a specific example, suppose that a project requires Log4j at build time, but we don’t want to deploy Log4j libraries when the app is deployed to a server, but rather rely on the app server’s version of Log4j. The same for j2ee.jar, jta.jar, etc.

Obviously this is easily dealt with via Ant, I’m just wondering whether ME supports it.

JC,
Not really. This is one of the reasons we are working on adding a deployment filtering technique similar to our new validation exclusion feature in a release soon.
