This issue affects 1.0.4 too, so you already have to deal with it.

This will be fixed in 1.0.5 RC2

If your own tests pass with 1.0.5rc1 there is no reason to prevent from
use. The OJB test-suite contains a lot of tests (all tests from 1.0.4 +
many new tests) and 1.0.5rc1 pass all tests (except the known issues).

Explored 1.0.5rc1 bugs:
