Brian Leathem commented on RF-12038:
------------------------------------

[~jorelia64]after reading through this issue, I'm thoroughly confused.  It sounds like at the end of your investigations you've uncovered two issues.  Would you please file two new JIRA issues with some _simple_ sample code and details of:

# What you _expect_ to observe
# What you _actually_ observe
# Any successful workarounds you have uncovered

Thanks!
