Jboss 7.1.2 Final, Subsonic and string-1.1.0.jar parse error
pathduck Aug 8, 2012 5:56 AMHi,
I'm deploying the Java media streamer Subsonic ( http://www.subsonic.org/ ) on JBoss 7.1.2 Final and get a parse error on string-1.1.0.jar on deployment:
2012-03-26 18:58:54,437 ERROR [org.jboss.msc.service.fail] (MSC service thread 1-2) MSC00001: Failed to start service jboss.deployment.unit."subsonic.war".PARSE: org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.deployment.unit."subsonic.war".

(note, error is from 7.1.1 Final but it's the same in 7.1.2, I just don't have access to logs atm)
The problem within string.jar seems to be the bodycontent tag in taglib.tld containing uppercase EMPTY:
<bodycontent>EMPTY</bodycontent>
If I change this to lowercase 'empty' the WAR deploys fine.
So what is the problem here; should the taglib.tld for string-1.1.0.jar be changed, or is JBoss too strict in its's parsing of this file?
This is on JBoss 7.1.2 Final, running on Debian with Java 1.6.0_18.
