Plugin fails to activate profiles in submodules.
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MRELEASE-415
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-415
             Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: perform
    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-8
         Environment: Fedora8, Sun Java 1.6.0_07, Maven 2.0.9
            Reporter: David C. Hicks


(I hope this is not a duplicate.  I searched JIRA but didn't find anything that 
looked like one.)

In a multi-module project, profiles that are activated only for sub-modules 
(not the parent project) are omitted from execution during release:perform.  In 
my specific case, I have a large, multi-module project in which one of the 
sub-modules is there to create an assembly during release.  Since I only want 
it to run during release, I've placed that into a profile in the sub-module's 
pom.xml.  When I run release:perform, I activate the profile.  However, the 
profile is never executed.

Workaround: By adding a dummy profile to the parent pom.xml, I was able to get 
release:perform to operate as desired.

I'm afraid I don't have an example to upload, at this time.  If I can find the 
time, I'll try to create one and come back to upload it.
