Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MJAVADOC-763:
------------------------------------------------
Yep, this never worked and never tested what it claimed to test:
https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/commit/067c711cd2bc1f744bfabfce226671561714227e
A combination of cargo cult programing, not writing the test first, and bad
exception management.
