Build.xml in testsuite directory doesn't support multiple JVM argument
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBBUILD-324
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBBUILD-324
             Project: JBoss Build System
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Targets and Tasks
    Affects Versions: Repository Build  head, Repsository Build Branch_4_0
         Environment: Any
            Reporter: Sunny Chan
            Priority: Minor


We are using the JBoss unit test as part of our JVM verification testsuite. We wanted to be able to invoke tests with multiple JVM options, but it didn't work. If you set parameters via build.sh -Djunit.vm.options with multiple paramters (e.g. -Djunit.vm.options="-d64 -verbose:gc"), it will fail with unrecongized option error.

The problem is that in testsuite/build.xml, the junit.vm.options is passed onto junit ant task via <jvmarg value> tag rather then <jvmarg line> tag. The jvmarg line allows multiple JVM options exist in one line. Once I replace all instance of <jvmarg value="${junit.jvm.options}"/> with <jvmarg line="${junit.jvm.options}"/> then the problem goes away.

I can provide a patch for this if you want - but I don't know the rules on patches (whether I need to be cleared for contribution) so let me know if you want that.
