I figured it out. I included a <build></build> section in one of my parent 
poms as a way of setting the different properties controlling the build of 
the plugins.

<project>
  ...
  <build>
    <directory>${buildtools.custom.dir}/build/${project.name}</directory>
 
<sourceDirectory>${buildtools.plugin.dir}/${project.name}</sourceDirectory>
 
<outputDirectory>${buildtools.custom.dir}/build/${project.name}</outputDirectory>
  </build>
  ...
</project>

Replacing that section with these three properties fixed it for all of my 
plugins

  <properties>
 
<build.directory>${buildtools.custom.dir}/build/${project.name}</build.directory>
 
<build.sourceDirectory>${buildtools.plugin.dir}/${project.name}</build.sourceDirectory>
 
<build.outputDirectory>${buildtools.custom.dir}/build/${project.name}</build.outputDirectory>
  </properties>

Is this "expected" behavior or have I stumbled across a previously untried 
combination of elements?


Thanks
