> If the initialization of a login module fails for some reason, no information is logged. 
> Stupid example that happened to me: calling log.debug before super.initialize(...) in the initialize(...) method of a custom login module. The log call provoked a NullPointerException that is catched silently somewhere and the login module will not be available to the application, resulting in Authentication exceptions upon the first EJB method call.
