mvn site:stage -P site
generates a usable web site in ${user.home}/vfssite/tmp
The main difference is that it uses version 2.2-SNAPSHOT of the site plugin.
The default is 2.0.1 which has issues generating urls on Unix systems. The bugs
are reported to be fixed in 2.1 so that version may work as well, but I somehow
think I would have used that instead of a snapshot if it had worked.
