[Spring] Exception is thrown complaining about multiple matching beans with version 1.2.5

In the process of transitioning from version Cucumber 1.1.8 to 1.2.5 I have ran into an issue where the below exception is thrown:

CucumberException No qualifying bean of type x is defined: expected single matching bean but found 2

I tried to dig a bit deeper and I see that the <T> T getInstance(final Class<T> type) method in SpringFactory class had changed and apparently is somehow responsible for that behavior.

I was able to replicate this behavior in a simple project which I uploaded to github and the link is below.

Cucumber Version: 1.2.5 Operating System and version: Windows 7 Link to your project: https://github.com/EugeneS30/cucumber-bean-defect-verification.git

@EugeneS30 possibly. You’d have to put a break poing at DefaultListableBeanFactory#registerBeanDefinition and see which beans are registered and where they came from.
