to-java not working when setter takes Map as parameter

Description

If I have the following class:

And I run the following clojure:

The final line throws a java.lang.InstantiationException: java.util.Map exception (full stack trace found below). It looks like there's a to-java method that, when it gets a APersistentMap, tries to create an instance of the type of the parameter which in this case is a Map interface, which of course cannot be instantiated.

I'm wondering why the APersistentMap wouldn't be passed in directly, as it implements the Map interface?

Will be in 0.1.3 release.

When a

setter is matched to a Clojure hash map, a new

is created from the hash map and returned. When other Java interfaces that Clojure's hash map implements are encountered, the hash map is returned as-is. The base case is unchanged.

This should have the fewest surprising edge cases (but I suspect only

is likely to be out there in the wild).
