Misleading documentation on <configuration><encoding> 
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MCOMPILER-148
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-148
             Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
            Reporter: Hayo S.
            Priority: Minor


On http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/compile-mojo.html you 
will find the following documentation:

encoding | String | 2.0 | The -encoding argument for the Java compiler. 
                          Default value is: ${project.build.sourceEncoding}.

At least for version 2.0.2 the value of project.build.sourceEncoding is omitted 
for compilation. It works in version 2.3.2. (Other version unknown to me).

The effect is that the project is compiled with the system default encoding 
instead. Applies especially to default configuration of the plugin.
