Mike Matrigali commented on DERBY-6352:
---------------------------------------

It looks to me like notifyAllActiveThreads() is meant to only be dealing with 
Derby threads, and the documentation
knut points at seems to indicate that we should not expect an exception on the 
call.  So I don't think we should
be recommending/requiring the modifyThread permission.

Since it is a "not expected" condition, I wonder if we should just catch it in 
insane and maybe ignore it and hope that it is a timing issue
with shutdown and the thread being is a wierd state.  Maybe in SANE mode add an 
assert with as much thread info as possible and the
assert will drive a jvm dump on some jvm's and that might help tell what is 
going on.
