How to exclude module-info.java in Netbeans (11)?

Our source code is still Java 8 complient, but we have two different builds: one built with JDK 11 and module-info.java. And one with JDK 8 and without module-info.java. With maven, this is easy two accomplish with to different profiles. For the JDK 8 profile, module-info.java is excluded:

  <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.8.1</version>
    <configuration>
      ...
      <excludes>
        <exclude>module-info.java</exclude>
      </excludes>
    </configuration>
  </plugin>

When this project is imported into Netbeans 11 and the correct profile activated, the maven configuration for excludes is ignored.

In case anybody stumbles upon this issue, I've indicated here why it (probably) doesn't work:

Migrating maven project to modules - ignore module-info.java

Make exclusion a part of base configuration. 

<pluginManagement>
    <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.8.1</version>
        <configuration>
            ...
            <excludes>
                <exclude>**/module-info.java</exclude>
            </excludes>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>

and override exclusions in java-11 profile

<profile>
    <id>java-11</id>
    <pluginManagement>
        <plugin>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <configuration>
                <excludes combine.self="override"/>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
