This works fine with Liferay 6.0.6 and Tomcat-6.0.29 but is not working with Liferay 6.1.0 and Tomcat-7.0.23

This is a simple EL coercion to from a string-based request parameter to an integer in the model bean. My suspicion is that this might be a bug in the Tomcat 7 jasper-el JAR.

I actually ran into this problem with the icefaces3-directory-portlet and icefaces3-users-portlet too with the SearchCriteria class and java.lang.Boolean, but in order to get them running in the short term I temporarily changed everything to string-based getters/setters. The icefaces3-users-portlet still has the problem though.
