I apologize if you get this twice. My ISP has been doing some work on their
email and it isn't quite working properly.

I'm confused how the build can continue without the parent pom. I wouldn't
call the behavior "inconsistent", I would call it completely indeterminate.
The parent plugin could have managed dependencies, plugin definitions,
variable definitions, etc. that will simply make the build not work
correctly.

Interestingly, I added another project cache for the fix to MNG-624, et al.
The key is the path to the pom, so having an incorrect relative path makes
the build impossible if you don't specify the parent project version.
