I'm not sure that's a smart a smart thing to do. I don't think there's a
requirement for XADataSource implementations to implement DataSource as
well. If that was the case, surely XADataSource interface would inherit
DataSource to enforce that. If we declare that PGXADataSource implements
DataSource, then one can erroneously configure the container to use
PGXADataSource in normal DataSource-mode. In fact I suspect that's the
case in your environment as well.

Can you provide a simple test case involving Hibernate so that I can try
this out myself? What's in your hibernate config file?
