Description

If you swap out Felix 3.0.9 for a 4.0.x version ServiceMix won't boot up at all. The following error occurs:

ERROR: Error parsing system bundle export statement: org.osgi.framework.startlevel;uses:="org.osgi.framework";version="1.0", ... , org.apache.xml.serialize; version="2.11.0",
(org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Exported package names cannot be zero length.)

Committing a simple fix shortly. Of course, this isn't hurting any current release but will need to be fixed in the future
