docx4j (which I host) is typically used with the Sun/Oracle JAXB implementation; the classes of interest below were generated using XJC.
I thought I’d try EclipseLink MOXy, to see how it went.
On context init, I get the following error:
ERROR org.docx4j.jaxb.Context .<clinit> line 107 - Cannot initialize context
javax.xml.bind.JAXBException:

The first pair of referenced classes, we have an enum STCF and CTClientData
The second pair of referenced classes, we have another enum STSourceType and CTSourceType
How might I workaround this problem?

I have been able to recreate the issue you are seeing. The issue you are seeing is due to the following bug:
UPDATE
This issue has now been fixed in the EclipseLink 2.3.3 and 2.4.0 streams. You can download a nightly build that contains the fix from the following location:
