Hi Gary,

Although I don't like relying on timer delays for stuff like this, the code for it is already in place, so I'm ok with making the delay longer to make sure there is contention on the monitor. Could you update the comment to read "// pause to provoke contention on thread.endingMonitor"

thanks,

Chris

While running a block of nsk/jvmti/scenarios tests, I noticed an occasional failure
for cm02t001 in windows debug platform. After enabling the nsk verbose
diagnostics and adding a few messages in the main test and the debuggee
thread, it became clear that the missing contention was due to the main thread
getting ahead of the debugee thread.

The call to letFinish() below let's the deuggee thread wake up from it's wait
and proceed to the contention for the endingMonitor. If the main thread
waits a little longer it should reach the debuggee thread synchronized block.

I reopened an earlier bug that was closed as CNR.
