Description Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-09-13 19:07:34 EDT 
If the javax.xml.bind bundle is used with com.sun.xml.bind on Java 5 which does not ship with a JAXB binding (only Java 6 does) a ClassNotFoundException exception occurs when a JAXBContext.newInstance() is invoked (see bug 325176).

I believe javax.xml.bind needs to specify a dependency or buddy policy in order to be able to load classes from com.sun.xml.bind.

Looks like an extra click occurred and bug 325179 is the same bug?

Sorry, I'll blame it on Mylyn :).
