Looking at it now. I'm going to rearrange the files a bit to put
ThreadLocal into the DRLVM's kernel classes so that the IBM VME keeps
working (as I mentioned earlier).
Doing so will benefit DRLVM only but not any VM that uses Harmony
classlib. Think about J9 and Dalvik (though it does not include the
classlib code directly) - shouldn't we instead make this
implementation globally available in classlib?
Yes, but it will require a co-ordinated change in each VM. This way
each VM can change to the new algorithm in their own time, then we can
switch it 'globally'.
Do you see any other way to keep IBM VM running?
