First of all I thank you for your suggestions. Integrating maven into
Gentoo Java infrastructure is in our TODO list for a long time and we
welcome any input trying to resolve this.

Some projects such as mina and slf4j distribute these versioned
- -source.jar files. I use the -source.jar files and I explicitly use
those to build the binaries.

The in tree ebuilds follow two methods here. One like yours where ejavac
is called for a set of java files. See media-sound/jtagger ebuild as an
example. The other is having a simple build.xml file as in
dev-java/slf4j-* or dev-java/mina-core. There are numerous examples in
tree for both methods.
