Description

Some artifacts are not referenced after executing mvn eclipse:eclipse and having pde mode enabled. The strange thing is, that this does only happen for particluar versions of an artifact.
Two artifacts that I found with this problem are jetty (org.mortbay.jetty) and slf4j-log4j12 (org.slf4j-log4j12). Jetty versions beyond 6.1.5 work with pde enabled, higher versions do not. Same for slf4j-log4j12 versions =< 1.1.0.

Attached is an example project demonstrating the problem. Turn pde mode on/off in the pom and execute mvn eclipse:eclipse.
