> Session.get() loads a cached instance of an alternate subclass with the same PK after that subclass has been loaded directly (throwing a ClassCastException where null was expected).  When attempting to load it without prior loading, null is returned, as expected.
> Client and Partner both extend person and have discriminator values of 1 and 2, respectively.  There is a single entry in the database (a Client) with a PK of 0.
> This should be null:
> Partner partner = (Partner) getSession().get(Partner.class, 0);
> assertNull(partner);
> It is.  However, if the Client is loaded first, Hibernate will attempt to return a Partner (as a Client) where it should not exist:
> Client client = (Client) getSession().get(Client.class, 0);
> assertNotNull(client);
>         
> // this should be null, not return a Client object (resulting in a ClassCastException)
> Partner partner = (Partner) getSession().get(Partner.class, 0);
> assertNull(partner);
