Well, this simple change will take the spring-mvc out of shared and
then the tools start including it again.  Quick test of osp and polls
looks fine:

There is work going on to look at Spring 3.0 moving forward here:
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/KNL-517

I was hoping to see if I could at least use spring3 webmvc in a tool
with core still at 2.5.6, but first pass seems to cause some error,
still digging into that a bit.  I think if this was possible that
would be a good compromise between those wanting to hold off on full
upgrade to spring 3.0, because at least tool devs could start using
some of the features in say spring mvc only.
