I've been looking at this a bit today, but haven't gotten very far. I think
this is related to the issue maven users have been having and described here:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-406

I'm attempting to reproduce using the jira bug description. It'd be good to fix
this, of course, and other eyes are welcomed to look at it.

Thanks,
