I guess that's not the problem. The problem is, that javac does not 
inherit the classpath. i.e. just because the classes are available
to the compiler in it's runtime environment does not mean that he has 
access to the class definitions. (i.e. class files) - nor that he knows
how to find them.

I have done something similar once, and you definitely need to tell 
javac explicitly where to find the classes it needs.
If they are in /jre/lib/ext he will look there anyway, but it's not 
really a classloader problem - it's just that javac does not utilize
it's own classloader to look for classes - it uses the system classpath, 
plus classpaths he has been explicitly told to use.

Try System.setProperty to change the system classpath and try again, I 
guess that will help.
