I commented on https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-orm/commit/cf1f10336ef1f71f1c09aa9b8e7555a76e037dae, I don't understand how org.jboss.spec.javax.transaction:jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec is bringing a dependency on the "intercepter".

http://pastebin.com/V80DyjeR shows the maven dependency tree for jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec:
