Is the active gravitational mass of a charged body distance-dependent?

Abstract

It appears to follow from the Reissner-Nordstrom solution of Einstein's equations that the charge of a body reduces its gravitational field. In a recent note Hushwater offered an explanation of this apparent paradox. His explanation, however, raises more questions than solves since it implies that the active gravitational mass of a charged body is distance-dependent and therefore is not equal to its inertial mass.
