Actually, you did.

It stops here. This is the abrupt stop I was talking about.

Here is how "mvn install" ends if I remove the second <excution> (the
one calling System.exit() in the main):

...

"anyType" is implicitly used as the content model of this element. Is this your intention? If so, please consider to write it explicitly as type="anyType".
