Package META-INF options always read from first jar instead of container jar

      You can notice the consequence of this using a jar having sealed modules in a package. This can cause all modules of the package being sealed.
      This is the case with the Open Office library.

      Please see this message http://community.jboss.org/message/629281#629281 to see how create a such module and notice the error.

      In org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader.defineClass(String, ClassSpec)

      The following code is not correct:

      PackageSpec spec = null;
for (ResourceLoader loader : loaders) {
   try {
      spec = loader.getPackageSpec(packageName);
      if (spec != null) {
         break;
      }
   } catch (IOException e) {
      // skip
   }
}

      because actually the getPackageSpec() method never returns null.
      So, if a package is declared in a later jar in the loaders list, the package spec will be loaded with the default options of the first jar of the list, instead of the option of the container jar of the package.
