why are you extending the pom? just set the property in project.properties, and use
the property in your project.xml for both the parent and child projects.
#project.properties snippit
myproperty=/usr/home/someplace
<!--parent project.xml snippit -->
<siteDirectory>${myproperty}</siteDirectory>
<!-- child project.xml snippit -->
<siteDirectory>${myproperty}/projectname</siteDirectory>
