Running tests with internal JVM diagnostic options (such as -verbose:*) will 
fail.

                 Key: LUCENE-4002
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4002
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general/test
            Reporter: Dawid Weiss
            Assignee: Dawid Weiss
             Fix For: 4.0


Passing JVM options that dump something to output streams before they are 
intercepted (-verbose:gc, -verbose:class) will break the communication
between the runner and the master.

Currently junit4 communicates with forked processes via stdout or stderr 
(depending on the JVM and which stream the JVM uses to dump crash infos). This 
is done for efficiency since it's a natural blocking pipe between the two 
processes. I forgot that the jvm can:

1) use process streams to dump verbose logs (gc, classes, jit),
2) use process streams directly, bypassing System.* overrides, to dump warnings.

This can be solved my moving the communication layer to another pipe or to a 
socket. I'll play with the options.
