SIGSEGV deserializating arrays of complex objects

The function Axis_Create_* (in the following example, the mapItem
object) in the stubs generated by wsdl2ws java tool generates a SIGSEGV
when tring to enlarge an array of objects

	mapItem* pNew = new mapItem[nSize];
	memcpy(pNew, pObj, sizeof(mapItem)*nSize/2);
	memset(pObj, 0, sizeof(mapItem)*nSize/2);
	--> delete [] pObj; <-- SIGSEGV

memset clears the virtual table pointer of the mapItem objects and the delete operator crash.
I suppose that there isn't an easy fix to this bug; I just delete the virtual destructor of 
the mapItem stub and now it works.
