The same code succeeded when running under diablo-jdk. I have precious little information on the details of the failure we saw so I'm hesitant to toss the jdk15 port squarely under the bus without more poking at the issue, but time just isn't on my side lately. :) Perhaps this will jog the memories of others who can elaborate.
