Description

When setting the class-loader, JEXL does everything it can to 'forget' as much as possible classes that may have been loaded by the now obsolete loader. Glaring omission were namespaces / functors that should be reloaded.

Incidentally, this will introduce a (user friendly) breaking API change, JexlUberspect missing the getClassLoader() method which is a stupid omission. Since this interface is not one that end-users implement, this change is harmless.
