severity 911925 important
thanks

As the ant build error was unrelated (likely a version problem, 
eventually killing the "build" folder to force a clean rebuild helped), 
reducing to "important" again.
Nevertheless, several users have observed this build problem with Maven 
surefire. While it may well be an issue with surefire, this causes 
unexpected build problems in other Java programs and needs to be 
investigated.
Downgrading via 
http://snapshot.debian.org/package/openjdk-8/8u181-b13-1/ helped for 
surefire.
Regards,
Erich
