> Hibernate 3.3 uses javassist (by default) to generate LazyInitializer Objects.
> If a lazily loaded object implements the clone() method, and makes it public, there will be a runtime IllegalAccessError because the javassist proxy object exports the protected definition of Object.clone() instead of the definition in the MethodHandler's Interface.
> The supplied patch makes the ProxyFactory to never reduce the visibility of a public method, even if implemented in a higher interface or the superclass.
> Normally the java compiler would catch such an error, so this is assumed to be save.
> Side effect is of course that a superclass method given to ProxyFactory might not be called as before because a public definition of the MethodHandler (Interface) overloads it.
