I find it very convenient/fast to get a fresh maven build installed locally. Just use ant and you have a new maven in your machine. No need of changing env var, then build with an other maven, then unzip in the correct place, then change again env var (but maybe there is something faster I'm not aware of). Furthermore all the core it tests running here https://builds.apache.org/view/M-R/view/Maven%20Core%20ITs/ use it. So I don't have any issue if you want to remove but please provide an easy way (I mean one line :-) ) to build/install a fresh Apache Maven locally and please update all the core its jobs.
