-------------------------------------------------------------------
I think it's simply dead code that should be deleted. SKIP_JAVA_TEST related to
a check we did regarding whether Java 6 was being used instead of Java 7. It
doesn't have anything to do with unit tests. Spark now requires Java 7, so the
test has been removed, but the parser still handles that variable. It was just
an omission not deleted as part of SPARK-7733
