Hi Mandy,
I thought the contract for @Stable was that the value would
not change after it's been assigned a non default value.
And the default for int is '0', not '-1'.
In view of that - isn't using 'final' a better alternative,
even though it's also lying?
best regards,

Alternatively, we can make bci an int (as Alekey suggests) that does not
increase the object size:

This means that this will replace Frederic's proposed patch for
JDK-8229375.
What do you think?
