Description

Building a project from an multi-modules archetype like Sling Project Archetype (https://github.com/apache/sling-project-archetype) will yield a parent POM that contains multiple empty lines between each line inside the POM.

This is an issue in Java 11 but not in Java 8.

This seems to be related to issue 584 but its in this case this is only an issue in Java 11 and the fix proposed in 584 does not seem to fix it.
