Brett Porter commented on MNG-1921:
-----------------------------------

I don't think this is a bug. 

Let me understand:
child inherits parent, but peer does not?

dependency management is not transitive, however the easymock in the child 
should already be transitive to the peer. But tests scope jars are not.

There are other problems here: eg, no group ID.
