Description

mvn help:effective-pom on a pom.xml containing

    <profile>
      <activation>
        <file>
          <exists>${project.basedir}/pom.xml</exists>
        </file>
      </activation>

shows interpolated value, which points to an existing file then is misleading

but the profile isn't activated since ${project.basedir} isn't interpreted during profile activation

we added a warning in MNG-5608, but showing the value interpolated exactly as done during profile interpolation would be more logic

• causes: MNG-6802 FileProfileActivator changes FileProfileActivator.exists which lets flattened resolveCiFriendliesOnly depending fail activating profile
• relates to: MNG-5608 warn if file-based profile activation uses ${project.basedir} since only ${basedir} is supported
