Hmm, I suspect that this is an error in the old javadoc module.  The
offending line reads

objectOutput.writeInt( ((Integer)(getProperty
(PROP_INSTALL_COUNT))).intValue() );

It doesn't check if getProperty (PROP_INSTALL_COUNT) returns null or
not.  PROP_INSTALL_COUNT falls entirely under the responsibility of
the module.

Reassigned the bug back to javadoc.  If its maintainers can go back in
time, then please go fix it:-)

It is simple and stupid bug. I did not expect, that writeExternal can 
be called before installed/restored method which tests and inicialize 
this value. If nessesary, can be fixed simply in patch.
Now it is wontfix
