no, i am saying that we could take bets on what area the trouble will come
from. My guess it is related to end-user configs we dont have or include in
tests: weblogic, funny java versions, interop with obscure implementations
like smalltalk. The real threat is that a week after we ship a new java
point release comes out and breaks things.
