Narrowing problem with Spring MVC annotation-based controller and @RequestMapping

Consider this Spring MVC Controller:

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/test*")
public class TestController {

  @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
  public void doStuff(Model model){
    ...
  }

  @RequestMapping(params = "myParam")
  public void doStuff(@RequestParam("myParam") int myParam, Model model){
    ...
  }

}

When I put this into my browser: 

mySite.com/test.html?myParam=1

I expected an AmbiguousHandlerMappingException or something, since both methods seem to match the URL.

But actually the first method got called. Does anybody know why?

This smells like a bug. If you add method=GET to the second handler, it works as expected, so that's the workaround.

I've filed a bug report on this, hopefully it'll be addressed.
