I'd say that the guy at devahead observed some behavior and lept to some weird conclusions.
ClassLoaders are just what they sound like. There can be two different instances of a class object (right: not instances of the class, instances of the class object) in two different class loaders. The states of those two instance are unrelated and can be quite different. The whole concept of a "singleton" requires definition. The singleton on your computer is clearly not the same as the one on mine. A singleton in the instance of a single application you ran 10 months ago is probably not the same as the one in the instance you are running right now. It's true, the "singletons" created using class members in classes loaded by different class loaders are different.
