That piece of documentation seems to be wrong.  By reading the script,
I certainly get the impression that the script is furiously trying to
figure out where my JAVA_HOME is when the JAVA_HOME environment is not
set.

Right after the block of script I cited, there is another check for
JAVA_HOME and it gives a warning if JAVA_HOME is not set.

If Maven is going to require the setting of JAVA_HOME anyway, all that
extra script are pointless.

Of course I'm advocating that Maven not requiring me to set JAVA_HOME
if I have installed my JDK in the "standard" location (such as
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_12.).
