> In JBossWeb 3, the types of the parameters of the Authenticator.authenticate method have changed. GenericHeaderAuthenticate overrides a superclass, and the change was made in the superclass but not in GenericHeaderAuthenticate. Effect is the method is no longer overridden, it's overloaded. Need to fix that.
> This is the cause of the hudson failures in GenericHeaderAuthUnitTestCase (e.g. http://hudson.jboss.org/hudson/view/JBoss%20AS/job/JBoss-AS-6.0.x-testSuite-sun16/545/testReport/org.jboss.test.web.security/GenericHeaderAuthUnitTestCase/testGenericHeaderBaseAuth/)
