Not a general problem. The Glossary plugin deploys
automatically.

Verify this by doing 'cd main. build clean; build'
Then do 'forrest run' in a site that specifies the
glossary plugin.
Watch it appear in $FORREST_HOME/build/plugins

The dispatcher plugin also deploys automatically.

A plugin needs to be described in whiteboard-plugins.xml
or it will not get automatically deployed.

The org.apache.forrest.themes.core "plugin" is not
described in the whiteboard-plugins.xml file.
