Problem description
===================
Since JDK7-b41 the following JCK7 test cases:
  api/javax_management/jmx_serial/openmbean/CompositeDataSupport/serial/index.html#Constructor[serial2001]
  api/javax_management/jmx_serial/openmbean/CompositeDataSupport/serial/index.html#Constructor[serial2002]
throws java.lang.NullPointerException.

Please use the following script to reproduce these failures:
--- index_Constructor.sh ---
#!/bin/sh

TCK_HOME=/java/re/jck/7/promoted/ea/b09/binaries/JCK-runtime-7
CLASSPATH="$TCK_HOME/classes"
JAVA_HOME=/java/re/jdk/7/promoted/all/b41/binaries/solaris-sparc

"$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" -cp $CLASSPATH javasoft.sqe.tests.api.javax.management.openmbean.CompositeDataSupport.serial.ConstructorTests -TestCaseID ALL

if [ $? != 95 ] ; then
  echo "-- failed "; exit 1 ;
fi

echo "-- passed"; exit 0
