Benjamin Bentmann closed MNG-4471.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
The fields {{<exists>}} and {{<missing>}} can be interpolated with environment
variables and system properties. You can't use properties from the POM itself
as their effective values are subject to profile activation/injection, i.e. the
POM construction would potentially run into cycles.
> Profile activation fails if <file> contains variables

> The profile is not activated when <file> has variables in it:
> <file><exists>${env.M2_HOME}/bin/mvn</exists></file>
> But when the path is absolute, it works:
> <file><exists>/my/maven/home/bin/mvn</exists></file>
