Just for a conclusion (we figured this out on IRC) let me comment:

I we got to the bottom of this on IRC.  The reason why you missed this hairy
little trap
even with the integration test runs was because the server-installers and
server-main
modules are not included in the build with the default maven profile.

I guess you're going to change this by making the default profile run all
integ tests and
include all the modules.  Then we can trigger just a quick build for
developers to quickly
compile modules.

Good idea!!! We should have done this from the start.
