My tests are showing system properties are passed correctly both on windows and linux.
To check this on your side please add the following snippet to your pom.xml
<build>
...
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<echo message="executeSonar = ${executeSonar}"/>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
...
</build>
and launch a build on your linux agent. It will print the value of your system property (which should be 'true').
Also, in your build log I've found the following text:
...
[13:23:29]: [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

...
Doesn't this mean that your build has successfully detected the presence of your parameter?
