Description:
Calling toString() or getAsDOM() on a MessageElement involves serialization.  Sometimes it is usefull to use these methods when working with 3rd party libraries that use DOM.  In this case, it is common to call getAsDOM before sending a message.  When trying to serialize a bean that is not in the type mapping, Axis will invoke getSerializer() on the bean.  That call will result in a nullPointerException trying to get the encoding style from the message context because the message context is null.

Attached is patch that uses the default encoding style when the message context is null.
