------------------------------------------
Yes, this is affecting some real projects. Fedora and RHEL have to use patched
version of Maven Plugin Tools:

>
> Annotation scanner in maven-plugin-tools-annotations assumes that all Java
> classes have superclass. This is mostly true, but there is one exception -
> java.lang.Object.
> If annotation scanner encounters a class with no super class (like
> java.lang.Object) it fails with NullPointerException in
> MojoClassVisitor.visit().
> Unit test reproducing the bug and proposed fix attached.
