For my better understanding:
Can you explain me the real bug in
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6881442.
In my understanding, loading the "name" field twice is too only a
performance bug. Please correct me!
Class.getName() could in theory return null and this is not allowed,
hence this was a functional correctness issue.
Hm, my problem is, I can't see any condition, how Class.getName() could
return null, except native method getName0() would return null.
But if native getName0() could return null, I can't see how the new code
would prevent method Class.getName() from returning null.
