Re: suppression dtd missing id attribute

A bit more on this:

When I run maven with the checkstyle plugin and I have a suppression file that has the following suppression in it:
	<suppress id="someModuleId" files="([Ss]ome\s*pattern)+" />

What I have for my suppression isn't important but when I use the id, I get this error:
	Embedded error: failed to load suppressions location: com/ontsys/fw/checkstyle/suppressions.xml
	Attribute "checks" is required and must be specified for element type "suppress".

Even though the documentation on suppressions says that either check or id must be set but that they are both optional if the other is set.

This seems like it might be a bug, maybe.
