Felix Meschberger resolved FELIX-1826.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Fixed in Rev. 830994: The newInstance method now never returns null but instead 
throws a ComponentException if the instance fails to be created and activated.

(also added a test to verify instances created with newInstance are not 
deactivated and disposed off when the component factory is deactivated)

> ComponentException must be thrown if ComponentFactory.newInstance cannot 
> create a component instance
