Pass -fae to the maven command. This tells Maven that if a module fails
in the reactor it should continue with the next buildable module
(meaning one that doesn't have a dependency upon the failed module).
(fae = fail at end).

However, this isn't going to resolve a cyclical dependency; nothing
will. That just needs to be resolved.
