Hi Michiel, thanks for this information. Obviously the tests depend on the JDK version they are run. For me, using a JDK 1.5.0_09, the tests run fine. CI also seems to use a JDK 1.5, but here 55 tests are failing, which seems to be caused by classes from the java.awt package that cannot be resolved (if I interpret the surefire reports correctly).
I just checked with a JDK 1.6 and can reproduce your results. I will have a look how these problems can be avoided (they seem to be indeed related to static fields). The other improvements for the pom you suggest make certainly sense.
