[weld-dev] javax.el.ExpressionFactory has final methods! CDI doesn't allow that

Hi Emily,

commments inline.

Just for the record: what's the name of the method?

OWB-616 does not fix CDI-527 but CDI-159, i.e. a private final method 
does not cause a deployment problem. This works in Weld too. On the 
other hand, CDI-527 is still an open issue so we can't simply fix it. In 
theory, we could add a new feature of a non-portable mode. But 
non-portable mode is not intended to be commonly used. It's kind of a 
workaround.
