From Jetty mailing list:

I got a NPE in the static part of the Log class if some system properties set by some other parts of our platform are not strings.

The NPE occurs at "org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.Log.java" line 105, when setting a property with a null value:
- __props.setProperty(key,System.getProperty(key))
