Input line too long during maven site generation

[Andreas Oppebøen <An...@marinecyb.com>]

I have problems with command  lines growing too big when running "mvn site" on Windows.
I have several reports I want generated, specifically checkstyle, pmd, javadoc, surefire, jxr, changelog and taglist.
There is native code being compiled, and some of these reporting plugins feel the need to link obj-files. Maven runs "link.exe" with quite a few files. The problem is that this command is executed repeatedly, and the same obj-files are added to the list of files being linked. Eventually build fails with "The input line is too long" due to limitations in cmd.exe.

Is it possible to avoid linking for each plugin? It doesn't need to run more than once. It also makes site generation take a very long time.
If not, is it possible to somehow clear the path so that these obj-files don't get added again and again?

(I am running Maven 2.2.1 on Windows XP)
