archetype create swallows exception information
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: ARCHETYPE-271
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-271
             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-4
            Reporter: Pablo GraƱa
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: jdom-error-message.txt

The DefaultPomManager.java contains:

        catch ( JDOMException exc )
        {
            throw new IOException( "Cannot parse the POM by JDOM" );
        }

all exc info is lost. My particular problem was that the archetype pom 
contained:

#set( $symbol_dollar = '$' )
#set( $symbol_lt = '<' )
#set( $symbol_gt = '>' )

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

and the space before the xml declaration was throwing the previous exception.

I attach a very simple patch to make it easier to track these errors. It was 
generated with svn diff > jdom-error-message.txt against 
maven-archetype-2.0-alpha-4.
