Axis clients sending arrays of ANYs containing arrays of strings send bad SOAP request.

           Summary: Axis clients sending arrays of ANYs containing arrays of
                    strings send bad SOAP request.
           Product: Axis
           Version: current (nightly)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Serialization/Deserialization
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Given the following .NET C# web service:

        [WebMethod]
        public object[] HelloWorld(object[] arg)
        {
                return arg;
        }

And calling it with the following Axis client:

        ArrayOfAnyType arg = new ArrayOfAnyType();
        ArrayOfAnyType rtrn;

        Object[] any = new Object[]{new String[]{"s1","s2"},
                                    new String[]{"s3", "s4"}};

        arg.setAnyType(any);

        rtrn = fport.helloWorld(arg);

The following SOAP document will be sent as the request:
.NET will actually except it and send back the same thing as the reply,
then Axis will throw and exception saying it can't be parsed:
org.xml.sax.SAXException: SimpleDeserializer encountered a child element, which 
is NOT expected, in something it was trying to deserialize.
