I've fixed this bug in my apktool.
It's dirty but works good. reference-array is a string-array (if we can believe the official documentation).
iBot, look at my pull request.

[huawuxin]

Thanks for the quick respond.
I'm not in a hurry to get the fix, you have planty of time to figure out a good solution if you wish. :)

[BurgerZ]

This fix works well for 12 days in my tool. I made it refering to the official docs of Android.

[huawuxin]

That sounds great.
But I'm sorry I havn't heard your tool before. Is it public released and maintained?

[BurgerZ]

No, I did it (and do it) for myself.
But u can try it - http://www.mediafire.com/?8lop3pb2526i2da
This apktool is part of my project jBART (http://burgerz.pro/programms/java/jbart-crossplatform)
