Hi,

I think the best thing to do is to submit your patch directly to the
Enhydra's ObjectWeb Forge project page. It seems that someone (you?) has
already posted a fix for this bug:
http://forge.objectweb.org/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=3&group_id=21

So I forward your mail to the enhydra mailing list.
(Enhydra developpers should normally receive a notification when a patch is
submitted)
Thanks,
Best regards,
