Reported by a user on the concurrency-interest mailing list, File field "path" is not declared final but should be. Thanks for forwarding Rémi. I did reply on concurrency-interest but I forgot that my original subscription there was @sun.com.

I've created a bug to track this:

7146152: File.path should be final

It's something that should have been fixed a long time ago (it's always been non-final). It's just the readObject that requires work, to use unsafe as you suggest.
