Seems that the real problem was that @LocalBean's inherited methods were not being proxied.
I created a jira: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENEJB-1642 and attached a patch with test and fix for the 3.2 branch: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12490360/20110814_LocalBean_inherited_methods.patch and a patch for the same test on TRUNK: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12490362/20110814_LocalBean_inherited_methods_trunk.patch -- <>< Marius ><>
