Gson 1.7.1 - Gson.toJson(myObject) causes StackOverflowError on com.google.gson.ParameterizedTypeHandlerMap.getHandlerFor(ParameterizedTypeHandlerMap.java:143) #405

When calling the following code from a Tomcat servlet:

Gson myjson = new Gson();
String json = myjson.toJson(myObject);
myjsons.add(json);

We get a stack overflow error: 

java.lang.StackOverflowError
        com.google.gson.ParameterizedTypeHandlerMap.getHandlerFor(ParameterizedTypeHandlerMap.java:141)
        .....

        com.google.gson.Gson.toJson(Gson.java:260)
        com.google.gson.Gson.toJson(Gson.java:240)

myObject is an instance of: 

public class MyObject
{
public String a;
   public String b;
   public String c;
   public String d;
   public String e;
   public String f;
   public String g;
   public String h;
   public String i;
   public String j;

   public void init()
   {
     this.a= "";
     this.b= "";
     this.c= "";
     this.d= "";
     this.e= "";
     this.f= "";
     this.g= "";
     this.h= "";
     this.i= "";
     this.j= "";
   }
}

Here is the weird part... it seems to be related to Tomcat redeploys. If we 
redeploy tomcat and try again, sometimes (randomly) the stack overflow no 
longer occurs and it will continue to work until the next redeploy. 

Why would redeploying Tomcat have an affect on the Gson library?

Upgrading to latest version seemed to eliminate the error (not sure why).
