Thanks a lot.

May you also add simple unit test to https://github.com/jersey/jersey/blob/master/tests/e2e/src/test/java/org/glassfish/jersey/tests/e2e/entity/JsonMoxyTest.java class to proof the fix? Thanks.

I am going to merge this pull request but it'll be reverted once MOXy 2.6 with the "real" fix is released and integrated into Jersey.
