Pavel Pervov commented on HARMONY-1833:
---------------------------------------

Now the patch is ok.

Still, to my thinking, malloc'ing small local blocks is not a good practice.

> The classlib tests hang sporadically, usually in JNDI module when running all classlib unit tests (single runs of JNDI alone always ok).
> Investigation shows that there are deadlocks happening between main thread (MT) and finalizer thread (FT): 
> 1) MT performs classloading, it grabs ClassLoader::_lock;
> 2) GC happens, FinalizerThread.startFinalization() is called, FT activates;
> 3) FT invokes some finalize() method, compilation starts and grabs g_compileLock;
> 4) FT waits for ClassLoader::_lock to allocate code_chunk_info;
> 5) MT proceeds to compilation of FinalizerThread.spawnBalanceThreads() and waits for g_compileLock;
