In such cases I typically use two tools,
a) the -X output, specifically to see the actual config parameters assigned to
a mojo and
b) look at the effective Pom to make sure there are no different executions
which I was unaware of.
Maybe that helps in this case (somehow I think there is a difference between
command line goals of plugins and the configured phases, but the old reporting
logic could also play a role as you noted),
