I was trying to use the jaxb 2.0 maven 2 plugin from
https://jaxb.dev.java.net/jaxb-maven2-plugin/ with JDK 1.6 but ran into a lot
of classpath problems when generating the XML bindings. For future reference
here a plugin setting for use in your m2 project that will use the built in xjc
in mustang.
