How can that be? The version info is in the pom.xml. I'll validate this when I build the versionless common jars. If the master build continues to create things in the right order and runs, the version in the jar name is irrelevant. If its broken, maven is broken.

Well, removing the versioned jars will break the maven builds depending on this module, such as security, with more to come.  Maven is expecting the jars to have the version info in them.
