Is this better? However, bear in mind that it's not exactly specified
where this is going to be incremented from yet. Nothing in this change
states that it's going to be incremented from the Throwable constructor.
I'm surprised to see adding a performance counter for an "external"
instrumentation agent to use. I understand that we agree that dynamic
bytecode instrumentation is a more appropriate approach to instrument
and count the number of thrown throwables. I guess I am missing the
big picture how you want the serviceability tools (jstat etc) to work
with the perf counters and tracing events.
