There is a build failure with OpenJDK 17 caused by javadoc errors:

Thanks for reporting it! Do you have time to submit a PR to fix it?

The easiest solution is to disable doclint, by setting -Xdoclint:none there https://github.com/junit-team/junit4/blob/main/pom.xml#L536 and below

@ebourg I misunderstood your original report to mean that it failed for you in a dependent project that somehow references JUnit classes in its Javadoc. What Maven commandline did you use to get the above output?
