Description
**[Delany](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=delany)** opened **[SUREFIRE-1942](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1942?redirect=false)** and commented
A forked JVM will ignore the toolchain jdk if the toolchain is set to a higher version than the system jdk.
Similar to this https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MTOOLCHAINS-28

**Affects:** 3.0.0-M5
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the forked-JVM behavior with a toolchain JDK higher than the system JDK, using the SUREFIRE-1942 description and the linked MTOOLCHAINS-28 issue as context. Trace the toolchain selection and fork launch path; done means the fork uses the configured higher-version toolchain rather than the system JDK.
