Dear Maintainer,

I was trying to package neo4j (https://github.com/neo4j/neo4j) using mh_make. While resolving one of the poms in a module there is
reference to a non-existing module within a profile. This caused mh_make to throw the following error.

Error message:

Analysing packaging/installer-qa/pom.xml...
Cannot find pom file /home/stephen/code/neo4j/neo4j/./packaging/installer-qa/pom.xml

I would expect mh_make to treat this as a warning and continue processing the pom.
