This is found through reading RDD from `sc.newAPIHadoopRDD` and writing it back using `rdd.saveAsNewAPIHadoopFile` in pyspark.

It turns out that whenever there are multiple RDD conversions from JavaRDD to PythonRDD then back to JavaRDD, the exception below happens:

```
15/01/16 10:28:31 ERROR Executor: Exception in task 0.0 in stage 3.0 (TID 7)
java.lang.ClassCastException: [Ljava.lang.Object; cannot be cast to java.util.ArrayList
	at org.apache.spark.api.python.SerDeUtil$$anonfun$pythonToJava$1$$anonfun$apply$1.apply(SerDeUtil.scala:157)

	at scala.collection.Iterator$$anon$13.hasNext(Iterator.scala:371)
	at scala.collection.Iterator$$anon$10.hasNext(Iterator.scala:308)
```

The test case code below reproduces it:

```
from pyspark.rdd import RDD

dl = [
    (u'2', {u'director': u'David Lean'}),
    (u'7', {u'director': u'Andrew Dominik'})
]

dl_rdd = sc.parallelize(dl)
tmp = dl_rdd._to_java_object_rdd()
tmp2 = sc._jvm.SerDe.javaToPython(tmp)
t = RDD(tmp2, sc)
t.count()

tmp = t._to_java_object_rdd()
tmp2 = sc._jvm.SerDe.javaToPython(tmp)
t = RDD(tmp2, sc)
t.count() # it blows up here during the 2nd time of conversion
```
