Description
I recently added a custom javadoc tag to cross reference requirements and implementation. This is accommodated by the maven-javadoc-plugin as in the following snippet from my pom.xml:
<reporting> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <tags> <tag> <name>requirement</name> <placement>a</placement> <head>Software Requirement:</head> </tag> </tags> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </reporting>
When I run the maven-ant-plugin, it fails with a NullPointerException:
[INFO] [ant:ant]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] FATAL ERROR

The maven-ant-plugin works fine when the custom tag configuration is removed from the pom.xml file.
