NullPointerException in collectd.log

Description

Investigating broken thresholds, I discovered NPEs in collectd.log (with opennms 1.7.4).

Don't know if it's related, but every time it happens the getEntityMap warning is around. It happens with the 3 default datacollection/thresholding measures :

ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusIndex
dskIndex
cbgpPeerAddrFamilyPrefixEntry

And the associated thresholds are not evaluated.

in collectd.log :

2009-07-31 19:39:31,682 WARN [CollectdScheduler-50 Pool-fiber1] CollectorThresholdingSet: getEntityMap: No thresholds configured for resource type cbgpPeerAddrFamilyPrefixEntry. Not processing this collection

This has already been fixed in trunk, and will be in 1.7.6 when it comes out in the next few days.

Sorry, I missed the bottom of the stack : NPE happens in function hasThresholds().
