****************************************************************
When the remote EJB is called which has not been strated, the
EJB container must throw a RemoteException.  However, rather
than just throwing this exception with no root-cause
information, the EJB Container code nests some of the root-cause
exceptions within the RemoteException for a more informative
message. In doing so a non-Serializable class, namely ByteArray,
is nested in the RemoteException.  When the RemoteException
is Serialized in order to propagate through the ORB and back
to the remote client, the non-Serializable class is attempted
to be Serialized.  This causes the following exception:

Caused by: org.omg.CORBA.BAD_PARAM:
com.ibm.ejs.container.util.ByteArray is not serializable
Problem conclusion
With this fix, code will be added to protect against the
non-Serializable class being added to the exception nesting.
Instead, a string representation of the pertainant information
contained in the non-Serializable class will be added to the
exception stack/info.
