CLONE -Maven can't compile against sibling test-jar dependency in multiproject 
(Test Attached)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-4248
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4248
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: WinXP
            Reporter: Obi Ezechukwu
            Assignee: Brian Fox
             Fix For: 2.0.8


I have 2 projects under a parent like so:

--Parent
        --- sample-jar
        --- sample-jar-user

sample-jar builds and installs a test-jar along with the normal jar. 
sample-jar-user depends on the test-jar at compile time. When I build from the 
parent folder, the build fails because it can't find the class. When I go to 
sample-jar-user and build, it works fine.

In the attached test case, to reproduce:
from the root folder, run mvn clean install - See it fail.
cd sample-jar-user; mvn clean install - see it succeed.


I remember reading somewhere that in multiprojects, maven attempts to locate 
the sibling classes in the source tree instead of using the jars from the 
repository. I'm guessing the problem is here that it's not looking in 
../sample-jar/target/test-classes for this code, but really one should expect 
this to come from the repository.
