---------------------------------------------------------------
I don't think this is a Scala-specific issue. In general, if you compile with
Java 8, there is no guarantee that it will run under Java 7 due to standard
library changes.
Having said that, we definitely want to support running the system tests with
Java 8 so that we can verify that they pass with the current Java version (and
the only version receiving security updates from Oracle).

> Allow Kafka System Tests under different JDK versions

>
> Currently the Kafka system tests (using ducktape) uses JDK7 as the runtime
> inside vagrant processes. However, there are some known issues with executing
> Java8 builds with JDK7 under Scala:

> We need to be able to config the system tests to execute different JDK
> versions in the virtual machines.
