Till and I had an offline discussion about this.
What you can do in your user code to set the TCCL properly is the following:
```
Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(this.getClass().getClassLoader());
```
`this` points in user code to a class loaded through the user code
classlaoder. So `this.getClass().getClassLoader()` is the CL you need to set
for the thread.

> Flink should set the thread's classloader when calling the checkpoint hook
> factory's `create` method. Without that, the hook is likely to fail during
> initialization (e.g. using ServiceLoader).
