I've been going through the fields in java.lang.Thread and I'm wondering if this field can be removed:
/* Whether or not to single_step this thread. */ private boolean single_step;
This field was used in the original Classic VM (pre-OpenJDK history). It doesn't appear to be used in the HotSpot VM.
Does anyone know of any reason to keep it? Are there other VMs using it by any chance?
