No, with maven 2 you cannot have a variable in the parent version.  The string 
will be interpreted literally without dereferencing the variable name.

Similarly, you can't have an empty version number: the parent MUST have a 
defined version number and it MUST be absolute and not contain any variables.

variables work fine in any other version number, however.  ranges, on the other 
hand, do not ;)

Good question. You'll have to find out if the project hierarchy or
dependency resolution is processed first. Report back and tell us!
