Andreas Lehmkühler resolved PDFBOX-1574.
----------------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed
      Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler

I've found a solution for the remaning issue in the trunk.

PDAppearanceString#setAppearanceValue expects another appearance stream as an already set value and does the same if the value isn't set at all. But there may be a subdirectory of streams and in the case of an unset value the AppearanceEntry is initialized with an empty directoriy instead of a stream.

I've changed the code so that always an appearance stream is set if the exisiting entry is a subdirectory independent of being new or not.

I've added a TODO, so that we can't forget to add support for subdirectories in the future.
