forking surefire VM

We are using JAVA_HOME to point to the VM to use to invoke Maven.  This
is fully supported by mvn and mvn.bat.  But surefire appears to fork the
VM that is in your PATH.  So we are seeing instances where one type of
VM is used to start Maven but another is used to run the tests.
Shouldn't the default be to use the same VM?  Why isn't surefire using
JAVA_HOME like the shell scripts do?
