SBT, Jetty and Servlet 3.0

[harrah]

The issue is well describe here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9889674/sbt-jetty-and-servlet-3-0

To summarize:

Adding,

libraryDependencies += "org.eclipse.jetty" % "jetty-webapp" % "8.1.2.v20120308"

to a project causes this:

[warn]  [NOT FOUND  ] org.eclipse.jetty.orbit#javax.servlet;3.0.0.v201112011016!javax.servlet.orbit (603ms)
[warn] ==== public: tried

The root of the problem is desribed in this bug:
https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JETTY-1493

The recommended fix:

ivyXML := 
<dependency org="org.eclipse.jetty.orbit" name="javax.servlet" rev="3.0.0.v201112011016">
  <artifact name="javax.servlet" type="orbit" ext="jar"/>
</dependency>

has no effect for me. I even tried:

ivyXML := 
<dependencies>
  <dependency org="org.eclipse.jetty.orbit" name="javax.servlet" rev="3.0.0.v201112011016">
    <artifact name="javax.servlet" type="orbit" ext="jar"/>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

Still no luck. I have also tried

rm -r ~/.ivy2/cache/org.eclipse.jetty*
rm ~/.ivy2/cache/*.properties
rm ~/.ivy2/cache/*.xml

Still, no luck.
