> org.jboss.com.sun.corba.se.impl.javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject#narrow() has a {{catch (Exception error)}} block in it which wraps all exceptions in a {{ClassCastException}}.  However, there should be a second catch block which catches {{RuntimeException}} and rethrows them verbatim, in order to avoid confusing incorrect error messages.
> In particular, you can get a {{ClassCastException}} whose cause is another {{ClassCastException}}.
> Problem found in 1.0.4.Final; no version for this exists in the JIRA schema however.
