If there is this issue, you can create your own PR and we can agree on closing 
mine.

Regarding {{command-line toolchain specification}} this is a problem. I don't 
know if this is technically possible but you can ask also on the dev mailing 
list. Perhaps somebody would help.

> There is the property "jvm" which allows to specify a specific JVM to run on 
> the tests through Surefire. This puts in an absolute path into my POM, 
> though, which makes the build less portable.
> Therefore I propose to allow an alternative option which allows to refer to 
> specific JDKs configured through toolchains.xml:
> {code}
> <plugin>
>     <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
>     <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
>     <configuration>
>         <toolchain>
>             <jdk>
>                 <version>1.7</version>
>                 <vendor>sun</vendor>
>             </jdk>
>         </toolchains> 
>     </configuration>
> </plugin>
> {code}
> Note that this allows to use a specific toolchain just for tests, 
> independently what's configured as toolchain for the overall build through 
> the maven-toolchain-plugin. This e.g. allows to run the build on JDK 8 but 
> run tests on JDK/JRE 7 (which is a frequent requirement for our projects). Or 
> one could have several Surefire executions, running tests on different Java 
> versions.
> The toolchain to use should be injectable through a property, so one can 
> easily configure it, e.g. for specific Jenkins runs: "... 
> -Dsurefire.toolchain=jdk:1.7" or "... -Dsurefire.toolchain=jdk:1.7:sun".
