I found the answer!
Somehow (dont ask me why) Eclipse messed up my librarry projects classpath file. it listed the "src" classpath entries in the wrong order (see attachment below).
looks like only the first entry is currently exported to the libraryproject.jar, which is used by my app-project.
Therefore only the gen-sources got attached, and not the sources in the src dir.
