Abstract: Fix ClassCastException when executing the getEJBObject method on a sessionHandle while noLocalCopies=true.

Description/symptom of problem: A ClassCastException is received when excuting a getEJBObject method on a SessionHandle 
while noLocalCopies=true.  The SessionHandle is holding a reference to the EJBObject instead of an EJBObject stub.

Directions to apply efix:
1) Create "efix" directory to store the efix jar file(s):
   AIX: /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/efix
   Solaris/Linux: /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/efix
   Windows: c:\WebSphere\AppServer\efix
2) Copy PQxxxxx.jar to the directory
3) Add the directory/jar file to the beginning of the admin server's classpath
  in admin.config:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminserver.classpath=C:/WebSphere/AppServer/efix/PQ51760.jar...

***any other steps needed before restart***

4) Stop and restart the Admin Server ***any processes that must be restarted***
