Description
getCause() and initCause() need to be modified to track the same "cause"
as getRootCause() and setRootCause().  Also, printStackTrace() needs to be modified so that invocations behave consistently with other exceptions in 
the JDK that have nested exceptions.

EVALUATION ###@###.### 2002-01-22 Use Throwable.getCause() to implement NamingException.getRootCause(). ###@###.### 2002-04-23 Actually, use NamingException.getRootCause() to implement Throwable.getCause(), and NamingException.setRootCause() to implement Throwable.initCause(). ###@###.### 2002-07-22 In addition to the above, delete the overrides for printStackTrace(). Throwable.printStackTrace() has done the right thing since 1.4, so there's no longer a reason to bypass it.
