[gatein-dev] Compilation hell on Windows

[Arnaud HERITIER]

I suppose that avoiding to build it on windows isn't a reply ??:-)
Another solution can be a change in a plugin because I updated several
things in poms.
But the only one I'm sure I didn't change is the compiler plugin where the
problem seems to be.

Cheers,

Arnaud
