Comment 2 for bug 505777

I was unable to reproduce this bug by installing maven and following the "Maven in 5 Minutes" instructions here:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html

I also tried 'mvn compile' in the project directory with no problems.

Output of 'mvn -v'
