Good point on it having to be a race condition. OK - sounds reasonable for backport then.

Sean - I've created a bug record for you. Will update when I see your push.

regards,
Sean.

Behavior mismatch between AbstractCollection.toArray(T[] ) and its spec
Is such a correction in an update allowed now ? Even if it is a
correction to original (released) behaviour ? This may be harmless but
I'm checking to be sure.

David, Mike, Sean - what are your thoughts here ? Does this need further
discussion with conformance/compatibility engineers ?

I don't have an issue with it. I can't imagine anyone relying on it working the way it had been as the whole thing depends on a race condition anyway.
