    Resolution: Won't Fix

I do understand what you say, but that's the first case I mentioned.  
In my second case, the StartLevel#getStartLevel() > Bundle#getStartLevel() but 
the start level thread is still running.  So I think this situation is not 
really in the use case mentioned in the spec (which is 
StartLevel#getStartLevel() < Bundle#getStartLevel()).

Anyway, given fixing this won't really prevent my problem since the behavior is 
different depending on the exact timing between StartLevel#setStartLevel() and 
Bundle#start(), i'll just close the issue.

For reference, the problem has been captured by 
http://team.ops4j.org/browse/PAXEXAM-356 and we have a working work around.

> The spec says:  "When the start method returns without an exception, the 
> state of the bundle will either be ACTIVE or STARTING, depending on the 
> declared activation policy and whether it was used. If the start method 
> throws an exception, then the bundle will not be in either of these states 
> and the stop method will not be called for this Bundle Activator instance."
> However there is a case where this does not happen, which is when the start 
> level thread is already running
> I think the Bundle#start should either activate the bundle or wait for the 
> bundle to be activated before returning in order to comply with the spec.
