On further analysis it appears that the use of schema extensibility in
highlighted section below from 
rim.xsd may
be the problem. Perhaps the JSONMarshaller does not handle such schema
extensibility correctly?
 <complexType name="AnyValueType">
    <annotation>
      <documentation xml:lang="en">
        A specialized ValueType that may be used as a container for any well-formed XML element value in any namespace.
        Use this to specify an XML element as the value for a Slot.
      </documentation>
    </annotation>
    <complexContent>
      <extension base="tns:ValueType">
        <sequence>
          <any namespace="##any" processContents="lax" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
        </sequence>
      </extension>
    </complexContent>
  </complexType>
This would cause the highlighted section below to not be marshalled properly:

I have narrowed the problem down.
  
  
The following XML file shows XML representation of my JAXB object:
  
  
<http://www.wellfleetsoftware.com/files/LightningDataset.xml>
  
  
When marshalling above to JSON, it appears that the Jackson code chokes
when Stax2JacksonWriter writes the  following content of the
<ns1:posList> element's body:
  
  
-120.0 25.0 -70.0 25.0 -70.0 40.0 -120.0 40.0 -120.0 25.0
  
  
Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than I would spot what could be
wrong and how to fix it.
  
  
Thanks.

I don't know how troubleshooting would work, but definitely writing a
      
simple (as simple as possible) unit test to reproduce would allow it
      
to be fixed.

Farrukh, sending out such a test case would be the most helpful,
