(I saw your email on dev@ and waited for it to be posted on [EMAIL PROTECTED])

Here's how I patch Maven jars:
download the code from svn
apply patch
modify pom to add -mycompany to version number ie 2.2.1.0-mycompany
(use your own company name here)
mvn install the file into your repo
"lock down" the plugin in your poms to the new version
<version>[2.2.1-mycompany]</version>

Its generally a bad idea to specify a version that might actually be
used in the future by the real maintainers of the plugin, that's why
-mycompany is a good idea. You definitely don't want to just bump the
version by 1.

I believe this might be documented somewhere... the Wiki isn't working
for me right now but I know we've discussed this here on users@
previously, so search the archives.
