FWIW, in 2.0.9 you can override the plugin dependency and force a newer version of the PMD jar (provided the api is compatible of course)

The dependency in general is not wrong, it's just inappropriate for users that would like to use newer rules. The SVN head has just been updated to use 4.2.1 (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPMD-78). Until the PMD Plugin 2.4 gets released, the following should solve your problem: <project> ... <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-pmd-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.3</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>pmd</groupId> <artifactId>pmd-jdk14</artifactId> <version>4.2.1</version> </dependency> </dependencies> </plugin> </plugins> </build> ... </project> i.e. overwrite the plugin class path with the PMD version your require. Note that this must be done using <build>, there is no <dependencies> element under <reporting>.
