I couldn't quite understand what the docs expected.  What I think is usable is 
the (undocumented) kar packaging which ought to look something like this:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"; 
                 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
                 xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0

http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd";>

 <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

 <groupId>hibernate-osgi</groupId>
 <artifactId>hibernate-osgi</artifactId>
 <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
 <packaging>kar</packaging>
 <name>hibernate-osgi</name>

<dependencies>
<!-- put in the bundles you want in the features.xml and kar as dependencies -->
</dependencies>

 <build>
        <plugins>
                <plugin>
                        <groupId>org.apache.karaf.tooling</groupId>
                        <artifactId>features-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                        <version>2.99.99-SNAPSHOT</version>
                        <extensions>true</extensions>
                </plugin>
        </plugins>
 </build>

</project>

This should generate a features.xml file inside the kar and include the bundles 
you mentioned as entries in the feature.xml and copied into the kar.  

thanks
