Description

If a service extends two interfaces which both extend (directly or indirectly) another (but exactly the same) interface containing a method signature, CXF throws the "An operation with name [...] already exists in this service" Exception.
CXF assumes that there are two different overloading methods, but it's the same method with the same signature.

Example:

public interface A extends B1, B2

public interface B1 extends C

public interface B2 extends C

public interface C
{
public String test();
}

This results in "An operation with name [

{http://foo.bar/}

test] already exists in this service"

It would be great if CXF could handle such a case, maybe by just accepting identical signature methods.
