Since m2e 1.1, if you start with no pom.xml and right-click on your eclipse project and Configure...>Convert to Maven..., the generated pom.xml is supposed to contain the maven-compiler-plugin configuration matching your Eclipse JDT settings. If you already have a pom.xml, then, no settings conversion is done, m2e uses the already existing pom and you must do as Greg said.
