Doing local counters per class is fine, as long as every use of a single

I think that there is a case either way. Some designs may, in fact want
subclasses to share separate counters. Using the explicit MyClassName.class
reference will create the shared lock for the super class and all sub classes.
More often than not, I've used this when I wanted the subclasses t
I didn't think you would need JLS references for what I was actually saying.
I fixed it in outrigger by extracting a static synchronized method
containing the critical region code. That naturally synchronizes on the
