Please appropriate noreg- label to the bug - especially if you are
thinking of backporting this to jdk8u in future.

The gist of the issue is that we must maintain GlobalConstants objects per
Context, and not as a single systemwide static in Global. Furthermore, as soon
as the Context creates its second Global, we must disable the constant linking
forever in that Context. Constant linking creates an intimate coupling between
a Global and the compiled code, and is thus not compatible with multi-Global
Contexts.
I have also reduced the synchronization burden in GlobalConstants somewhat
(only synchronizing when state needs to be accessed), and reduced the need to
even access GlobalConstants from ScriptObject when it's clear that the script
object in question is not a Global.
Thanks,
Attila.
