Can't use springFormMultiSelect and mvc:annotation-driven tag together

mvc:annotation-driven seems to be adding converters which convert a collection to a string. Because of this some spring velocity macros (springFormMultiSelect and springFormCheckboxes) dont work as expected, since the macro's depend on bindstatus.getvalue being a collection. (selected options won't be displayed as such) See the following macro:

Code:

---

#macro( springFormMultiSelect $path $options $attributes )
    #springBind($path)
    <select multiple="multiple" id="${status.expression}" name="${status.expression}" ${attributes}>
        #foreach($option in $options.keySet())
            <option value="${option}"
            #foreach($item in $status.value)
                #if($item == $option)
                    selected="selected"
                #end
            #end
            >${options.get($option)}</option>
        #end
    </select>
#end

When replacing $status.value with $status.actualValue it works as expected.. Is this a bug?
