Why is Eclipse exporting sources in war?

Question

I'm trying to export a WAR in eclipse, from a maven project. when I click File > Export > War File, then a dialog is show with the option "Include source Files". This option is not checked (is a checkbox) and eclipse is still exporting the WAR with the source files. I also tried, to check that option and still output the war with the source. I am running Indigo on Linux 64bit.
