This is now working in trunk. See the use of the ProfileServiceUnitTestCase.compositeValueMap for creating the CompositeValue from a Map(String,String). This needs to be moved into the mc metatype MetaValueFactory to allow one to create the CompositeValue directly from the map instance. I'm not sure if your using the MetaValueFactory currently.
