I think I know why it didn't work: I was not in the project's directory.
I don't call mvn myself but it's done from a shell script which is done
in a different directory (with the -f option).
Here's your example run:
1- in the project directory... everything works fine
2- outside the project directory... the profile doesn't get activated
macb-003:~/Development/test/parent jl$ mvn install

Then you're probably doing something wrong. Here's a simple test case.

That doesn't seem to work: the module never gets built (even when I
don't have an activation section).
