I agree, we would be working around a long-standing bug in geronimo 2.2.  I was 
really glad to fix it in trunk and then fix openejb.

To fix it in geronimo, we need an InitialContextFactoryBuilder modeled on the 
aries one, but using gbeans instead of osgi services.  This would only take an 
hour or two to write.  However it may cause a fair amount of upheaval to get it 
properly installed and configured.  I don't have a lot of time to spend on this 
right now, maybe I should try writing the ICFB and we can see how hard it is to 
get it to work.
