I've finally found and solved the problem! It is right there in my
post: -Dmaven.test.skip=true. This causes test-jar generation to be
skipped and hence modules with dependencies to test-jars cannot
resolve them. One should instead use -DskipTests, which will skip
tests, but will still generate the test-jar.

Speaking of subtle details ruining a developer's life... Renaming
<id>default-jar</id> in maven-jar-plugin configuration to something
else also breaks the compilation. Though I did not further dig this
down. Just don't do it.
