This is really sounding like something unrelated to Tapestry, and there
isn't enough code presented to tell.  

Do you have proof that your code works outside of Tapestry? Why, and how,
did you EXTEND TreeMap?  Do you have a unit test to prove that your MyMap
works?

If you can present a non-Tapestry test that works, and corresponding
Tapestry test that doesn't, then I think you'll find an answer quickly.
