Summary: Exporting a binary feature that includes a plugin available from source fails

Description Pascal Rapicault CLA 2005-08-05 11:38:15 EDT 
Scenario:
- import as source in a workspace: org.eclipse.core.runtime.
- export the org.eclipse.rcp feature using the export wizard.

You will notice that the resulting runtime plugin is just a zip of the runtime
project from the workspace which is obviously the wrong format.

This is caused by the fact that binary features (a feature that does not have a
build.properties) do not get considered at build time, and their content is just
reused as is.
