  The JAX-WS runtime is not correctly importing the indicated
  class. One of the scenarios that could cause this problem is
  if the com.ibm.ws.websvcs.metadata.*=all trace is enabled
  

Problem conclusion

• The JAX-WS runtime manifest is changed to correctly import the
  com.ibm.ejs.csi package.  The DefaultComponentMetaData class
  will now be correctly found.
  
  APAR PK85717 corrects this same problem for WebSphere
  Application Server V7.0
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 6.1.0.29.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
