We should be able to pre-req just WST, but we also need the JDT, because 
the XSL launch configurations currently still depened on some JDT 
functionality.   We'll have to continue looking at if there is a way to 
get around this dependancy.

The items you removed aren't the cause of the failure, but if JDT isn't 
included, then we will get a launch error as it won't be able to find 
some of the items.  Like you I can't get it to fail locally, and nothing 
from the code side has changed, so I can only think that something in 
the build has changed that is causing the issue.
