ive had nothing but headaches with forked executions..specifically 
maven-surefire-plugin
If I shut off fork in the <configuration> <forkMode>false<forkMode>everything 
works
i'm not sure if this aberrant behaviour can be reproduced with other goal 
bindings in other plugins but reading past blog entries
from Tran ..forked executions seem to always cause problems 
http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/jira-Created-MSUREFIRE-121-ability-to-add-dependency-to-jvm-s-classpath-rather-in-surefirebooter-clar-td191678.html
 WDYT?
