Thanks Ron - a couple followup questions below:

I've been assuming LTW is expensive - is it not? I think I'll give it a
go, since I don't want to modify Hibernate unless I have to.

Right; the issue is that I need to exclude Hibernate joinpoints
regardless of where they're called from - it's not always from "my
code".

Thanks, I was a bit method-invocation-myopic there for a moment - didn't
consider the other joinpoint types. :-)

Dumb question (?): Why "execution(* new(..))" in the pointcut
immediately above - isn't this covered by "execution(* *(..))"?

Cheers,
Neil
