Upon trying to use my 'under development' version of plugins for checkstyle and pmd, I ended up with m2e doing two very odd things: making 'problems' with a description string of 'null', and offering to add pom exclusions but not actually adding them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install eclipse-java-indigo-M7-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz

  20110519-1049

2. run updates from Help

3. Created tag m2e-bugzilla-snapshot on github.com:bimargulies/m2e-code-quality.git so you can see
where this all comes from.

4. Install http://eclipse-cs.sf.net/update/
5. Install ttp://pmd.sourceforge.net/eclipse

6. installed from com.basistech.m2e.code.quality.site-0.13.0-SNAPSHOT-site.zip
  (this takes a rather a long time 'calculating requirements' and such)
7. svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/xmlschema/tags/xmlschema-2.0
8. In eclipse, import/maven/existing projects for that xmlschema tree
9. leave all projects selected
10. 'next'
   I see 
     Packaging bundle (Install Tycho configurator ...)
     maven-bundle-plugin  (Install Tycho configurator ...)
     maven-checkstyle-plugin (Resolve later)
     maven-pmd-plugin (Resolve later)

The last two are surprising, since the checkstyle and pmd mapping work
fine when I launch eclipse from inside eclipse. I wonder if I'm missing something from
build.properties.

11. Finish
12. Confirm tycho install
13. Restart

   -- now, Problems view has three problems with a description of 'null'

Plus other complaints about my stuff that don't make sense to me, like
claiming that one of my classes isn't available.

14. Try the quick-fix on one of the 'not covered by execution errors'

   - no offer to fix parent proj
   - no actual change made to any pom at all
