> Maven does not detect self references in a POM and tries to download the artifact it is about to build, which makes no sense and should result in an early error and abort of the build.
> E.g. sample POM:
> {code}
>     <groupId>org.my.acme</groupId>
>     <artifactId>my-module</artifactId>
>     <version>1.2.3</version>
>     <dependencies>
>         ...
>         <dependency>
>             <groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId>
>             <artifactId>my-module</artifactId>
>             <version>${project.version}</version>
>         <dependency>
>     <dependencies>
> {code}
> Maven tries to download my-module.jar but obviously fails...
