> The section of the mvn script:
>   Darwin*) darwin=true 
>            if [ -z "$JAVA_VERSION" ] ; then
>              JAVA_VERSION="CurrentJDK"
>            else
>              echo "Using Java version: $JAVA_VERSION"
>            fi
>            if [ -z "$JAVA_HOME" ] ; then
>              JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/${JAVA_VERSION}/Home
>            fi
>            ;;
> ignores JAVA_VERSION if JAVA_HOME is set. This would be fine if it would compile against the version of java specified in JAVA_HOME, but it doesn't it compiles against the value pointed at by the /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK symlink, which is always 1.5 (even if you change java version so that the /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current symlink is updated by the OS).
> I would prefer maven respect JAVA_HOME, but will take anything that allows me to leave JAVA_HOME set and still be able to compile things :-)
