HttpURLConncetion JDK bug with HTTP DELETE?

I'm thinking I might have found a bug with the HttpURLConnection class while
doing an HTTP DELETE. When getResponseCode() is called on the connection I
get this:

Caused by: java.net.ProtocolException: HTTP method DELETE doesn't support
output
    at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getOutputStream(
HttpURLConnection.java:851)
    at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(
HttpURLConnection.java:920)
    at java.net.HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode(HttpURLConnection.java

    at org.apache.cxf.interceptor.MessageSenderInterceptor.handleMessage(
MessageSenderInterceptor.java:58)
    ... 23 more

Why in the world getInputStream is calling getOutputStream I have NFI. I've
also tried setting doOutput(false), but then I just get an exception saying
I need to set doOutput(true) for getOutputStream to work!

Anyone have any clue what the key to getting DELETE to work is??
