Thanks for the hint, Dan, this actually works perfectly!
I wasn't aware of this way to specify the JAR. It would be worth updating
the documentation of the Checkstyle plugin. I will create a JIRA issue for
this.
FYI, Jason, yes, I've executed the test project on the bane of your
existence ;-)
- Windows XP with Java 1.5.0_06
- Windows 2k with Java 1.4.2_02
So even if this way of using the build extension is deprecated, I think this
remains a bug on Windows.
Anyways, everything works fine now.
So here is my (non-binding) +1 :-)

Just FYI: we (CXF team) put our checkstyle rules into a jar bundle and use
that. However, we don't put it in the extensions. We put it as a
direct
dependency for the plugin:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
<artifactId>cxf-buildtools</artifactId>
<version>..... </version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
......
<plugin>
and that works fine with 2.0.5.
