Hey Adrian,
From reading the links you provided, it doesn't seem to be a sealed
package thing. Indeed, we do not seal the jars. The error is, for example:
2010-02-25 08:36:00,520 INFO [org.jboss.web.WebService] (main) Using
RMI server codebase: http://127.0.0.1:8083/

the same package

(This is from line 2 of the server.log when you replace jboss.jar in EAP
5 with an unsigned version.)
Cheers,
