Jeremy, it's a known issue and it's a hard one to track down. I've
searched through the net and I've seen people reporting it as a bug in
xstream and advising to upgrade the lib. What seems to help is
restarting openmrs though. If you can, please create an issue in JIRA
for mds and paste the stack trace. I forgot to save the stack trace
myself and I couldn't reproduce the exception either.

saveConcept is triggered because we add missing mappings to concepts
while exporting. See the Concept Source paragraph in the User's Guide
[0].
