--------------------------------------------------------------
This approach causes these tests to fail

Failed tests: 
  testDynamicImportWithWildcard(org.jboss.test.osgi.core.jbosgi323.OSGi323TestCase)
  testAllPackagesWildcard(org.jboss.test.osgi.classloader.DynamicImportPackageTestCase)
  testAllPackagesWildcardNotWired(org.jboss.test.osgi.classloader.DynamicImportPackageTestCase)
  testPackageWildcardWired(org.jboss.test.osgi.classloader.DynamicImportPackageTestCase)
  testPackageWildcardNotWired(org.jboss.test.osgi.classloader.DynamicImportPackageTestCase)

AFAICS, the module tracking only works when the exporting module gets installed *after* the importing module has its policy setup.
The WildcardClassLoaderPolicy should probably also scan allready existing modules when it is setup. More generally, perhaps a ModuleTracker
that works simmilar to  http://www.osgi.org/javadoc/r4v42/org/osgi/util/tracker/BundleTracker.html BundleTracker is needed.

Even then, addModule

public void addModule(Module current)
   {
      Domain md = getDomain(current);
      if (md != null && current.canResolve(requirement))
      {
      ...
      }
 


will not add the exporting module because Module.canResolve(req) would not return 'true' for DynamicImport-Package: *
