I use mvn on the command line. I actually solved the problem by setting the
java version explicitly. I have jdk 1.6.0_33. I found some things on
various sites which suggested mvn always compiles in 1.3 mode. You might
not notice this in an IDE (if it is true) since your IDE is likely to fix
this for you. After all, you also have an explicit java version in your IDE.
