code from HEAD

I created a new launch configuration (JUnit plugin) for the Ant UI tests, tried to run it and noticed that every single bundle in my workspace + target would not resolve (from the console output).

Looking around for a good 15 minutes Curtis and I discovered that I had two bundles with different project names but the same symbolic name. If the validate plugins action had told me this instead of just "You have two singleton plugins: <plugin_symbolic_name>" I could have saved 14.8 minutes.
