Never mind.. I think I see what happened.. apparently I messed up a version
of a child dependency which became out of sync with everything else.. this
apparently caused the release plugin to go completely haywire.  Telling it I
didn't want to resolve the dependency made the build quit but with an error
telling me what it was trying to resolve (which by fixing manually I think
might allow the release plugin to function properly).
