This could be a bug in Jackrabbit. Please consult the Jackrabbit users or dev
mailing list (http://jackrabbit.apache.org/mailing-lists.html) and maybe report
an issue (http://jackrabbit.apache.org/issue-tracker.html).

Same-name siblings create a lot of problems, not only on the implementation
side, but also when using them in applications, since the paths are not stable
so it's always good to avoid them altogether.
