Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MNG-6495:
--------------------------------------------

I'll have to see if I can repro this. This as not a command line invocation of 
Maven. It happened because some of my own code attempted to pass null for an 
argument. 

> ModelResolver cannot be null

>  says "The model resolver to use, may be null."
> Not sure whether to update the docs or the code here.
