The actual bug is in the hashCode() impl generated by Modello:

public int hashCode()
{
    int result = 17;
    result = 37 * result + getArtifactId() != null ? getArtifactId().hashCode() : 0;
    result = 37 * result + getGroupId() != null ? getGroupId().hashCode() : 0;
    result = 37 * result + getVersion() != null ? getVersion().hashCode() : 0;
    return result;
}

due to operator precedence, this ends up being like

result = ( 37 * result + getVersion() ) != null ? getVersion().hashCode() : 0;

i.e. always triggering the call to getVersion() as the string concatenation delivers a non-null result.

This bug is also present in at least Maven 2.0.9, but went unnoticed. It was now triggered by a debug statement added in r724969
