What would be much easier to do is for VersionAwareMarshaller or GenericJBossMarshaller to provide more hints about what's wrong. So, they could hide the inner details of the EOFException and launder it into something that's clearer to the user:

Agreed that's reasonable on the receiver side, and of course we can't
control the network so while we can't always prevent it, can we still
try to not send incomplete streams from the sending side?
