I could be behind on the Jigsaw terms, but why are you re-installing  
or un-installing anything? Versioned artifacts should never change and  
I'm assuming that a "module" is a versioned artifact that at some  
point is associated with class files. Are you allowing the system to  
have an artifact change over time?
