LinkageError when mocking certain classes

[bindungszustandsamplitude]

Hello together,

since EasyMock 5.1.0, I get a LinkageError when I try to create a mock for certain classes. I saw it first for javax.security classes such as LoginContext. In version 5.0.1, this worked without an issue.

Step to reproduce:
It could be reproduced by the following dummy test:

@Test
void test() {
    EasyMock.mock(javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.class);
}

Expected behaviour:
A mock for the class LoginContext gets created.

Actual behaviour
An exception with the following cause is thrown:

java.lang.LinkageError: bad field type alias: class org.easymock.internal.ClassMockingData not visible from class javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext$$$EasyMock$1

EasyMock Version: 5.1.0
Java version: Temurin 11 for macOS (OpenJDK11U-jdk_aarch64_mac_hotspot_11.0.18_10)

Yes. It's fixed with #356. Should release soon when I have 2 minutes.

Just FYI, I have the same issue with the InitialContext on 5.1.0.

        mockSupport = new EasyMockSupport();
        initialContext = mockSupport.createMock(InitialContext.class);

I can confirm that with 5.2.0-SNAPSHOT ( 264a75d ) works well. When can we expect the release?

A release would be great indeed, thanks in advance!
