I'm still note sure if all the recent changes were needed... the 
Wikipedia page says that double locking is broken only under Java <= 
1.4, and it points to 
http://www.cs.umd.edu/~pugh/java/memoryModel/DoubleCheckedLocking.html 
which claims that simply adding 'volatile' will make it work (on Java 
1.5 and later, which is the only thing we care about).
