warning printed when a pom does not use an activated profile is poorly worded 
and also should not be printed for multi-module builds
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-4583
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4583
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Profiles
    Affects Versions: 3.0-alpha-6, 2.2.1, 2.0.11
            Reporter: Ian Springer
            Priority: Minor


This is a followup to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3641. Refer to that 
issue for the background.

The current warning message is:

"Profile with id: '" + explicitProfileId + "' has not been activated."

I think this message is misleading, because the profile actually is activated - 
it's just not used at all in the pom being processed. I suggest changing the 
message to something like:

"Profile with id '" + explicitProfileId + "' is activated, but this pom does 
not contain any usages of the profile."

Also, I don't think it makes sense to print this warning at all in a 
multi-module build. In the large multi-module project I work on, we have a 
number of profiles that are only used in a handful of the 50 or so modules.
