BeanUtils.populate() throws IllegalArgumentException when setting indexed property as array.

BeanUtils.populate throws an IllegalArgumentException when setting an indexed 
String property as an array.

For example:

public class TestBean {
    private String stringIndexed[] =
    { "String 0", "String 1", "String 2", "String 3", "String 4" };
    
    public String[] getStringIndexed() {
        return (this.stringIndexed);
    }

    public void setStringIndexed(String value[]) {
        this.stringIndexed = value;
    }

    public String getStringIndexed(int index) {
        return (stringIndexed[index]);
    }

    public void setStringIndexed(int index, String value) {
        stringIndexed[index] = value;
    }
}

. . .

public class BeanUtilsTestCase extends TestCase {
. . .
public void testPopulateIndexedProperty2 {
    // verify populate as String array.
    Map aMap = new HashMap();

    String[] compArray = new String[]
        {"STRIDX 0", "STRIDX 1", "STRIDX 2", "STRIDX 3"};

    aMap.put("stringIndexed", comp);

    BeanUtils.populate(bean, aMap);  // throws IllegalArgumentException!!!
}
}

I believe this should work because TestBean has the array setter method.
    public void setStringIndexed(String value[])

Note, if I remove just the indexed setter it works!
 /* public void setStringIndexed(int index, String value) {
        stringIndexed[index] = value;
    } */
