Description

When defining the following menu item in site.xml, then the last menu item is not rendered properly as an absolute URL.
Its href is empty:

<menu name="Maven 2.0">
<item name="APT Format" href="format.html"/>
<item name="FAQ" href="faq.html"/>
<item name="Xdoc Example" href="xdoc.html"/>
<item name="Maven 2" href="http://maven.apache.org/maven2/"/>
</menu>

The problem seems to be rooted somewhere in $decoration.body.menus.

The problem does not occur for links!

Steps to reproduce:

• Create a new maven project using the site Archetype.
• Modify the menu section in the site.xml as shown above by adding an absolute URL.
• run mvn clean
• run mvn site

Check the absolute URL.
