You can try:

CI=true mvn verify -Prelease,\!docker artifact:compare \
-D'reference.repo=https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachelogging-1327'

There are three small bugs in the build, we should fix:

1. Upgrade mvnw,
2. Upgrade docker-maven-plugin,
3. Run CI build without `-Pjava8-tests,\!java8-incompat-fixes`, which is
what setting CI=true does.

The java8-tests profile moves jspecify from the `provided` to the
`tests` scope to workaround a Java 8 reflection bug. This affects SBOM
generation.
