Incorrect handling of cascading bidirectional collections during merge/attach
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug

I'm having a problem merging an entity, here's the simplified structure:

Class A {     @OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy="parent")
   Set<B> b_set;
   ...
}

Class B {
   @ManyToOne
   A parent;

   @OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy="parent")
   Set<C> c_set;
   ...
}

Class C {
   @ManyToOne
   B parent;
   ...
}

New instances of A,B,C are persisted correctly. However when I retrieve A, add 
some entries to A.b_set (with some of the new B entries have attached C's), 
em.merge(A) fails:

- If A is detached:

    org.apache.openjpa.persistence.ArgumentException: Encountered new object 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in persistent field "C.parent" of managed object "[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]" during attach.  However, this field does not allow cascade attach.  
You cannot attach a reference to a new object without cascading.

- If A is not detached:
                 C instances are inserted before B instances, resulting in a 
foreign key violation.

Setting openjpa.jdbc.SchemaFactory to 'native(ForeignKeys=true)' does not seem 
to have an effect.
