Description

According to the book "Enterprise OSGi In Action" (section 6.3.3), when a prototype-scoped bean is exposed as a service using Blueprint, a new instance of the service should get created for each consuming bundle.

Services exposed in this manner in Karaf are not behaving this way - a single service instance is created and
all consuming bundles use it. It appears the prototype scope is being ignored since the obseved behaviour is
what is expected for singleton-scoped beans exposed as services.
