To close the loop on this one, here is a link to the jdk8 changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/e7d125f2575b

I'll propose a backport to jdk7u-dev once this has bake for a little in 8 first.

While the changes actually ended up being quite small, this issue has haunted us for a while now. It gets mentioned on many forums. Hopefully, this will be an end to it.

Christian, thanks for debugging and resolve this issue for us.

-Chris.

Christian,

I finally got back to this. Since init() is only ever called from the class initializer it is implicitly single threaded, so we only need to add the synchronized keyword to getSystemProxy(). I also added a test for completeness. Here is the final webrev that I intend to push ( listing 'Christian Schulte <cs at schulte.it>' as the contributor ). http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/7188755/webrev.00/webrev/ -Chris. Thank you. Regards,
