OnSuccess of GeoXmlOverlay.load is looping

Found in Release: gwt-maps-1.1.0

Detailed description:

Suppose I have the following code when loading GeoXmlOverlay :

  GeoXmlOverlay.load(url, new GeoXmlLoadCallback() { 
            @Override 
            public void onFailure(String s, Throwable throwable) { 
                Window.alert("Sorry, your map overlay failed"); 
                GWT.log(s); 
                if (throwable != null) { 
                    throwable.printStackTrace(); 
                } 
            } 

            @Override 
            public void onSuccess(final String s, final GeoXmlOverlay geoXmlOverlay) { 
                GWT.log("Overlay success for " + s); 
                map.addOverlay(geoXmlOverlay); 
            } 
        }); 

Something strange is happening where the onSucess method is called again when 
map.addOverlay(geoXmlOverlay) is called.

if map.addOverlay(geoXmlOverlay) is not called, no looping occurs.

Workaround if you have one:

           public void onSuccess(final String s, final GeoXmlOverlay geoXmlOverlay) { 
                GWT.log("Overlay success for " + s);
                if(!overlayCache.contains(geoXmlOverlay)){
                  overlayCache.add(geoXmlOverlay);
                  map.addOverlay(geoXmlOverlay);
                } 
            } 
Where overlayCache is just an ArrayList<GeoXmlOverlay>.  This code still 
results in the onSuccess method being called twice.  The second time, the cache 
has the overlay so map.addOverlay is not called.
