That makes it hard for us (an I guess for other Eclipse projects as 
well) to use this bundle in other forms than as a binary. Our automated 
build is not based on Maven and it assumes that the source bundles that 
are checked out have necessary files such as the manifest present. I 
guess that any build based on PDE or Athena will have similar problems.

Is there really no other solution to this problem?
