    WCM Components such as:
    
    [PathCmpnt type="noprefixservlet"]
    [Placeholder tag="noprefixhref"]
    
    or API methods such as RenderingContext.getWcmServletPath().

    WCM Components such as:
    
    [PathCmpnt type="noprefixservlet"]
    [Placeholder tag="noprefixhref"]
    
    or API methods such as RenderingContext.getWcmServletPath().

    The WCM Rendering Portlet code was updated to correctly
    determine the user is anonymous and use the unauthenticated
    servlet.
    

Temporary fix
