WrapDynaBean misleading error message: Property has no read method

[Dave Briccetti]

Thanks for DynaBean and all the other great Commons code.
WrapDynaBean gives a misleading error message: "Property foo has no read 
method" when actually there is a getFoo() method, but it throws an 
exception.

WrapDynaBean:
   public Object get(String name) {
       Object value = null;
       try {
           value = PropertyUtils.getSimpleProperty(instance, name);
       } catch (Throwable t) {
           throw new IllegalArgumentException
                   ("Property '" + name + "' has no read method");
       }
Here's an example of the "getFoo()" throwing an exception. I'm using 
XmlBeans to get a data value which is invalid:

org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlValueOutOfRangeException
   at 
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.JavaIntHolder.set_text(JavaIntHolder.java:42)
   at 
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlObjectBase.update_from_wscanon_text(XmlObjectBase.java:1068)
   at 
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlObjectBase.check_dated(XmlObjectBase.java:1206)
   at 
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.JavaIntHolder.intValue(JavaIntHolder.java:52)
   at 
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlObjectBase.getIntValue(XmlObjectBase.java:1424)

But as you can see, get() completely masks the real error.
Thanks.
