Description

Our main project consists of 3 multi modules projects m1, m2 and m3

m1 is a multi module project which contains again several projects.
There is a cyclic reference in m1 (only for test cases) which we solved with the dependency tag <scope>test</scope>:
A --> B --> only for test cases C --> A
If we build m1 separately it works.
If we want to build our main project it aborts with "The projects in the reactor contain a cyclic reference" with the cycle shown above.
