Dirk,
The problem seems not related to shadow facts, but to constraint
resolution and fact data extraction. It might be a bug or not... need more
info.
In any case, the offending rule is not the one you showed. The
offending rule contains a double beta constraint in a join:
org.drools.common.

Can you narrow it down? Did you tried with Drools 5.0.1?
