deletePersistentAll() throws FatalNucleusUserException

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. use deletePersistentAll() to delete entities as seen in the following code 
snippet.
2. the problem experienced only in the GAE infrastructure and not in the local 
development environment.

PersistenceManager pm = pmf.get().getPersistenceManager();
Transaction tx = pm.currentTransaction();
long deleted = 0;

try {
  tx.begin();
  Query query = pm.newQuery(RawResult.class, "dateTime < :threshold");
  deleted = query.deletePersistentAll(new Object[] { threshold });
  tx.commit();
} finally {
   if (tx.isActive()) {
     tx.rollback();
   }
   pm.close();
}

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The selected entities should be deleted.
Instead the following exception is received:
