Cannot use jsontoken with Guava

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Setup a gradle java project with Guava 17.0 (uses RateLimiter) and jsontoken 
1.1 (for use with google wallet JwtGenerater) and try to utilize the 
RateLimiter.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
No problems should appear.  

However, I see this:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Guava 17.0
jsontoken 1.1

Please provide any additional information below.
The problem appears to be that jsontoken uses the old collections jar instead 
of guava.  (http://jsontoken.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pom.xml).
