Thanks Jason,  1/2 a fix is not enough.

Thanks, Roger

p.s. I don't think the comments and suggestions are all in yet.

Roger,

Looks like StaticProperty.initProperty is never called.  I assume that was 
suppose to be called on lines 40-43?

Hi Roger,

Overall I think the intent of the change is a good one, as is the
reimplementation of internal uses of system properties to use an
internal API instead.

I think it would be good to have an explicit initialization of the
SystemProperty class (or whatever it ends up being called) instead of
implicitly initializing via a static initializer. If the class is
initialized too early, for some reason, things would go wrong.

That would be a no-op;  I want the values of the properties to be final
statics which means they have to
be initialized by the static initializer.
Should there be an error, a warning, or assertion checking to make
sure that none of the cached values are null? They should all be
non-null, right?
Yes, null will be a fatal InternalError.

Thanks, Roger
