Yes, JBoss 4.2.2 ships with a broken jUDDI implementation. JBoss adds its own org.jboss.jaxr.juddi.JUDDIServlet (located under ${JUDDI_SAR}/juddi.war/WEB-INF/classes) on the top of Apache's juddi. This class contains a bug in doPost() method. 

The cause of the problem is mentioned in JBossWS JIRA (you have to scroll all the way down to Richard Oplaka's comment from Jan 8, 2008): 
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBWS-1905 
On JUDDI side this problem is documented here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JUDDI-114

Looks like JBoss developers changed JBossWS code to follow SOAP specification (see discussion here: http://www.jboss.org/?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=100782) but forgot to fix multiple clients of their code (JUDDIServlet included). The problematic pattern is here: SOAPBody soapReqBody = soapReq.getSOAPBody();
  | Element uddiReq = (Element)soapReqBody.getFirstChild();

If you can patch JUDDIServlet, replace the above fragment with something like this and it will work fine: 
SOAPBody soapReqBody = soapReq.getSOAPBody();
  | Iterator elements = soapReqBody.getChildElements();
  | Element uddiReq = null;
  | while ( elements.hasNext() ){
  |   Object element = elements.next();
  |   if ( element instanceof Element ){
  |     uddiReq = (Element) element;
  |     break;
  |   }
  | }
