I have a quick question on the OSGi 4.1 specification.

In the specification, section 3.2.1.14 and section 3.5.2 both say that the 
Bundle-SymbolicName header is required. But the documentation on the 
org.osgi.framework.Bundle class says that getSymbolicName() may return a null 
if no symbolic name is set.

Under what circumstances could getSymbolicName() ever return null if the header 
is required? Is this perhaps to support old versions of the spec where the 
Bundle-SymbolicName was not manditory?

Thanks!
