If you move your code to the extension directory, then it is
loaded by 
the extension class loader.  If your code then tries to
naively find a 
class (via Class.forName(String)) that is only loaded by a
class loader 
"derived" from the extension class loader (e.g.,
the application class 
loader), that would naturally not work.  (Check out 
Class.forName(String, boolean, ClassLoader).)
