From what I've been able to find, the toolchains stuff isn't used by any released plugin versions, which means we'd have to release these plugins before we could support that use case in a 2.2.0/1.5+ world. Can somebody please help me out with this? How do we support the 1.4 use case if we require JDK 1.5+ in Maven itself?
