On trunk this is happening as a result of making GetFeatureInfo work with
complex features (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4351),
but it should never happen when working off standard data sources.

Where is your layer data coming from? A custom data store?

I've cc'ed Niels, the author of the change that's resulting in the
exception you're seeing.
Niels, wondering if the following test:

if (! (collection instanceof SimpleFeatureCollection)) {
                    //put wrapper around it with layer name
                    Name name = new NameImpl
(layer.getFeature().getNamespace().getName(),
layer.getFeature().getName());
                    collection = new FeatureCollectionDecorator(name,
collection);
                }

would not be better expressed as:

collection.getSchema() instanceof SimpleFeatureType
