Mark Proctor commented on MNG-2809:
-----------------------------------

Actually I'm not sure if this is spaces. I tried it using ${basedir} with a path that didn't have spaces, it iddn't activate. I looked at the help:effective-pom and cut and pasted the whole url it was displaying there and it worked. Does that mean that profiles are being decided before the variable resolving is done?
