While investigating a plugin issue which was introduced with version 1.463 of jenkins I found out that it is impossible to build any plugin against this version.
Even the default plugin generated by mvn hpi:create does not build anymore, after you select 1.463 in the pom.xml.
The build fails with the following exception:

I am not a mvn expert but adding the latests guava.jar to the classpath of the javac fixes the problem.
I assume that this problem was introduced in version 1.463 as it does not exist in 1.462.
