There's definitively a JDK bug, as @xxDark managed to cause assertion failures 
in the JDK when the code was called from the wrong thread. If NetBeans fixes it 
with an agent patch, and it proves to work well over time, that may help 
convince OpenJDK to fix it upstream eventually.

I don't think that's good: For the purposes of actually fixing the bug, "nearly 
always" is something we can work with. "Hard to reproduce" is much more 
frustrating.

Why is there still pushback against the agent solution?
