Have you locked down the version of surefire you are using in your pom?

if you have not locked it down, then you will be picking up a newer
version of surefire with 2.1.0.

AFAIK, a newer version of surefire has issues passing system
properties to the forked process.

in any case you should always lock down the versions of plugins that
you are using or else your build is not fully reproducible
