Hervé Guillemet updated MNG-7563:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
An important change has been introduced in 3.8.5 that breaks some existing 
builds: Java system properties now take precedence over default values of user 
properties in dependency POMs. This look like a bug since it's now easy to 
affect dependency behaviors with system properties, a practice that has been 
discouraged. But maybe do you consider this as a new feature ?

As an example, 3 poms are attached to this ticket.
After installing projects b and c, building project a with:
{{mvn package -Ddep=x}}
used to succeed until 3.8.4 (-D is ignored) but throws error with 3.8.5 and 
3.8.6 (-D override the default).
