I looked at our gnu.java.rmi.server.UnicastRef and - yes, unfortunately 
it seems that there is system property in Classpath that would force the 
object serialization even if the RMI client and server are in the same 
machine.

If you plan serious testing work, we should probably add such property 
as a necessary testing tool, but altering RMI implementation requires to 
have a test suite first. I think, you can commit such tests anyway 
because the object serialization is not the only thing in RMI that 
deserves testing.
