NPE on Serialization

Hi,

I get the following NPE on serializing JDOM 1.0:

---8<---
11:17:15.220 ERROR [org.apache.wicket.util.lang.Objects ] - Error
serializing object class de.silberlicht.wsl.test.HelloWor
ld [object=[Page class = de.silberlicht.wsl.test.HelloWorld, id = 3, version =
0]]
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.jdom.filter.ElementFilter.writeObject(ElementFilter.java:167)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
---8<---

In ElementFilter.java:167 there's no check whether or not 'namespace' is
actually set.

Changing writeObject() to

---8<---
private void writeObject(ObjectOutputStream out) throws IOException {

out.defaultWriteObject();

// We use writeObject() and not writeUTF() to minimize space
// This allows for writing pointers to already written strings
if( namespace!=null )
{
out.writeObject(namespace.getPrefix());
out.writeObject(namespace.getURI());
}
}
---8<---

solves the problem. Does this have any side-effects?

Best regards, --- Jan.
