This is controlled by the maven-compiler-plugin. The version of that plugin that Maven 3.0.4 uses by default uses Java 5 by default. So you must either have an older version of the plugin defined or a configuration of that plugin stating Java 1.3. If you check the effective-pom it should be "easy" to tell.
