[infinispan-dev] JGroups 2.8 and Infinispan

[Mircea Markus]

The issue was the one pointed out.
Cause was that "java.net.preferIpv4Stack" does not get propagated  from  
property *parent\pom.xml* to the JVM running the tests.
This is rather strange, as all other property do get propagated 
correctly. Anyone encountered anything similar before?
The fix/hack was to enforce "java.net.preferIpv4Stack" programatical;y, 
in an @BeforeSuite. This sorted the problem.
