Description
I get an InitilizationException when i try to process an annotation for a MapConverter subclass. Below is output of my testcast.
com.thoughtworks.xstream.InitializationException: Cannot instantiate converter com.thoughtworks.acceptance.annotations.MapConverterTest$MyMapConverter : Cannot construct com.thoughtworks.acceptance.annotations.MapConverterTest$MyMapConverter, none of the dependencies match any constructor's parameters

Below is a new testcase for the above reported problem
