I have successfully imported a multi-module maven project which has just the parent-pom and a single module in it. When I add a new maven module to the the parent pom, it creates the new module, but corrupts the parent POM. It almost empties the parent POM while trying to add the new module to the list of modules. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Unzip the attached test case in /tmp.
1. Import /tmp/m2e_bug/ into Eclipse as a maven project from existing sources.
2. Select parent-pom, add a new maven module type project to it. Give it some name.
3. Choose "webapp-javaee6" as the artifactId in the archetype selection panel. Leave everything else as default. Finish creating the module.
4. Now, you will see parent-pom getting almost emptied as shown below:

<project xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd" xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
	<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
	<modules>
		<module>foo</module>
	</modules>
</project>
