Similar to bug: 7869
The BeanSerializer.serializer method assumes that a property of a bean has 
a 'getter' by calling Method readMethod = propertyDescriptor[i].getReadMethod.
Then it uses this reference as readMethod.getReturnType.  But 'readMethod' is 
null.  Therefore, a null ptr exception is thrown.

This is actually 'post' beta.  

Reproduction is to use a bean for a return type of a called WS method that has 
only a 'setter' with 'no' getter present.
