StreamCorruptedException is reported when trying to
do RMI between a 1.5 JVM (RMI Server) and 1.4 JVM (RMI
client).

This occurrs when the Object being returned via the RMI
calls is DSAPublicKey or contains an object of type
DSAPublicKey.

This happens when stubs are generated with/without using
"-vcompat" flag. The RMI call works if we remove the
DSAPublicKey field from the Object or set it to null.

The exact stack trace is

java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested
exception is:
java.io.StreamCorruptedException
