mvn install - multiple modules using subproject as launch point - pom.xml gets 
renamed installed in local repository as a .war file
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1784
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1784
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug

  Components: Reactor and workspace  
    Versions: 2.0    
    Reporter: David Boden
 Attachments: demo.zip

Please unzip the attached demo.zip and navigate to the BigWAR directory. From 
here, type:
mvn install

You'll get this logged:
[INFO] Installing C:\dev\demo\BigWAR\pom.xml to C:\Documents and 
Settings\dboden\.m2\repository\com\demo\demo\BigWAR\SNAPSHOT\BigWAR-SNAPSHOT.war

The pom.xml gets renamed to a .war file and installed in the repository!

I admit that I've not quite used the pom.xml sub modules features as intended. 
However, it would be better if we could use them in this way! Any pom.xml 
should be able to specify that sub modules should be built beforehand. Why 
should we have to use the parent as the starting point for a sub modules build?

In any case, I'm sure you'll agree that installing a .xml file as a .war is 
incorrect behaviour, in any case.
