> In some cases a resolver exception gets shadowed by a NPE that happens during the processing of the resolver exception, this means that the end user has no way of knowing why the resolution failed, he only sees the NPE.
> The offending code can be found in the FelixResolver class, line 117:
>   XResolverException resex = new XResolverException(msg, exmod.getModule(), exreq);
> In some cases exmod is null which means that an NPE gets thrown and the resolution exception is lost.
