The root pom.xml default profile (xe) doesn't reference
xwiki-platform-tools so you were always getting a config resources
tool from our repository (since yours wasn't built).
See : http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/trunks/pom.xml
If you want to build everything including tools you have to do : mvn
install -Pall

We don't modify xwiki.cfg very often but, when we do it and commit it,
the continuous build push the new config resources tools on our maven
repo.
In your case I'd advice not to modify this tool but to make
modifications to xwiki-product-enterprise/web/pom.xml instead.
See : http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-products/xwiki-enterprise/trunk/web/pom.xml
You can use xwikiCfgAdditionalProperties to add anything you want to the cfg.
