APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
This APAR is being created to ship defect 113682.
The WebSphere classloader was not correctly picking up a jar
file that was referenced by an EJB module's manifest.
For example:
WAR -> EJB1 -> Dependent JAR
EJB2 -> EJB1
The above resulted in the dependent jar being improperly
handled resulting in ClassCastExceptions
