We have a number of project trees that at their root inherit from a released
version of a corporate pom.  The following diagram should give you an
example of what I am trying to convey.

Module1:1.0-SNAPSHOT (Parent: Corporate Pom:1.0)
|
+= Module2:1.0-SNAPSHOT (Parent: Module1:1.0-SNAPSHOT)
+= Module3:1.0-SNAPSHOT (Parent: Module1:1.0-SNAPSHOT)
      |
      += Module4 (Parent: Module3:1.0-SNAPSHOT)

Assuming a completely empty local repository, Maven 2.2.1 can build this
project tree properly, pulling the corporate pom from the remote repository,
but Maven 3 can not.  It will not even try to retrieve the corporate pom
from the configured remote repositories, but instead will immediately fail
saying it can't resolve the parent pom.  If I change it to be a SNAPSHOT of
the corporate pom then it appears to properly attempt to pull from the
remote repositories.
