> When system scope dependencies are in a parent POM and the systemPath for those variables contain a variable to be interpolated as a root path, maven throws off a lot of spurious warnings that the POM does not validate because system paths need to be absolute.  An example of this in a parent POM (where ${jboss.home} is defined in ~/.m2/settings.xml):
> {code:xml}
> 		<dependency>
> 			<groupId>jboss</groupId>
> 			<artifactId>activation</artifactId>
> 			<version>4.0.4.GA</version>
> 			<scope>system</scope>
> 			<systemPath>${jboss.home}/server/default/lib/activation.jar</systemPath>
> 		</dependency>
> {code}
> In discussing this with John and Jason online, both apparently have generic implementations that can go in at some point, but this is something I would like to get into 2.0.5.  The patch is ~25 lines of new code with one replaced.  
> It's marked as blocker because we use the assembly plugin, which fails the build on the validation problem where most other plugins just enumerate every system scope dependency.  For now, I will distribute the patched version around the company though :-)
> thanks
