The LoggingMXBeanTest has been intermittently failing because garbage collection can cause the (weak) references to Logger instances to go away. LoggingMXBeanTest2 has the same issue, but no bug has (yet) been filed against it. The fix is to simply make the Logger variables static so they don't get gc'd. This looks fine to me and I'd suggesting using the one bug for both.
