When reading the archetype-metadata.xml file, would be helpful to know if the 
XML was badly formed

                 Key: ARCHETYPE-282
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-282
             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Archetypes
    Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-4
         Environment: Windows, but affects all envs
            Reporter: Chris Melikian
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: DefaultArchetypeArtifactManager.java.patch

If archetype-metadata.xml is malformed, say with a module element which is 
unclosed (missing slash), there is no error message displayed in the log 
output, even with the debug(-X) parameter set.

The DefaultArchetypeArtifactManager class contains methods which catch 
exceptions but do not log the problem. The problem is just silently ignored. 
I've created a patch file to log the problem at WARN level so that anyone who 
has a problem can see why it occured.
