If this is true then we should not be using ANY 3rd party libs at all.
 Most users cannot tell where the line is between 3rd party libs and
ActiveMQ's source.  The ActiveMQ project is ultimately responsible for
all functionality shipped (if its 3rd party or not).  If it's a 3rd
party defect then the ActiveMQ project needs to either work around the
defect, patch the defect in the 3rd party library or work with the 3rd
party to fix the defect.  All 3 approaches are possible with hawtio
too.
