When trying to run Restful application against Spring 3.0.2.RELEASE, the following exception is thrown on JBossAS console and the application doesn't work well:

And the following testcase fails: retrieveClientHTMLValues
Everything's working fine when leaving Spring dependencies of the example as they are, thus 3.0.1.RELEASE. However, we certify WFK 1.1 to run against 3.0.2.RELEASE so this should work.
