The patch I commited is based on the original loopcount patch, but fixes the
problem where it wouldn't evaluate all non-recursive expressions.
Therefore, the issue has been fixed and all tests still pass.  I agree that
we should re-evaluate our usage of ognl down the road, but I believe the
committed fix will resolve the security issue.  I've back-ported the fix to
XWork 2.0 and XWork 1.2, and Rainer has promised XWork releases in the next
few days.

ok !

Now we should only understand what to do with expression like "%{foo}
%{bar}" that has more than one expression at the "same" recursion level.
