Doesn't look like you did this?

Yes, agreed.

Let us know when you have info.

https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/WBRI-70

Basically, I want to always delegate CL to the container SPI, so that  
it can work well e.g. in OSGi. But I do initially need to use the CL  
to load the the SPI impl class. What is the best way to do that, that  
will be portable?

Something like this?

if (Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() != null) {
    classForName(name, Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader());
} else {
    classForName(name, WebBeansBootstrap.class.getClassLoader());
}
