> If a pom.xml's ${project.build.directory} is set to an absolute path and the same pom.xml's project/build/outputDirectory references this property, the compiler sends built classes to a path relative to the current dir.  However, if the outputDirectory property is hard-coded to the absolute path, then the build classes are properly dropped in the absolute path.  Example:
> <build>
>   <directory>/Volumes/RamDisk/target</directory>
>   <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory>
> Incorrectly sends javac output to /Users/matt/myProject/Volumes/RamDisk/target/classes
> However:
> <build>
>   <directory>/Volumes/RamDisk/target</directory>
>   <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory>
> Correctly sends javac output to /Volumes/RamDisk/target/classes
> As a note, other users of an absolute ${project.build.directory} handle the path correctly, such as the maven-war-plugin.
