Usage of EJBObject/EJBLocalObject during ejbLoad()/ejbStore() leads to recursions

Consider the following Entity EJB, BMP:

public class MyEntity
implements EntityBean
{
private EntityContext context;

public MyEntity()
{
}

// From local bean interface
public void doSomething()

{ // Noop, just for demo }

public void setEntityContext(EntityContext P_context)

{ context = P_context; }

public void unsetEntityContext()

{ context = null; }

public void ejbActivate() {}

public void ejbPassivate() {}

public Integer ejbFindByPrimaryKey(Integer Pi_id)
throws FinderException

{ // Select id from database }

public Integer ejbCreate(Integer Pi_id)
throws CreateException

{ // Insert in database return Pi_id; }

public void ejbPostCreate(Integer Pi_id) {}

public void ejbRemove()
throws RemoveException

{ // Delete in database }

public void ejbLoad()

{ // Select from database // Causes recursion - always context.getEJBLocalObject().doSomething(); }

public void ejbStore()

{ // Update in database // Causes recursion - depending on transaction attributes and readonly/read-write context.getEJBLocalObject().doSomething(); }

}

According to the EJB spec 2.0 it should be allowed to use EJBObject/EJBLocalObject during ejbLoad()/ejbStore(). If so this does not work on JBoss as a recursion is produced by the EntitySynchronizationInterceptor#invoke(Invocation) when checking against EnterpriseContext#isValid().
