@prrace I agree with you that our intrusion is a large maintenance overhead and that \
it can lead to potential errors. It is worth mentioning two things that could make \
you feel less scared:  1) Much of this is code temporary: the code is here until we \
find a proper way to integrate this information into the JDK itself, without \
incurring a noticeable maintenance overhead for the JDK maintainers. 2) We test all \
our code intensively with all the tests provided by the JDK assuring that on every \
release we pass the same tests that the JDK is passing.
