Second issue cause found: maven-javadoc-plugin. With it (tried with v2.6 and v2.5) just listed in reporting plugins section with no additional configuration build fails to resolve intermodule dependencies. Without it, build is successful. Multiple maven plugins have reported issues of failure to resolve intermodule dependencies ( http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-195 , http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4233 , ... ) - maybe at least some of those people were using plain maven-javadoc-plugin.
