 Review comment:
   this double-checked locking idiom isn't safe unless you insert a memory 
barrier before the store to jclassesInitialized. (it has to be a store with 
"release" semantics)
   
   Otherwise, the compiler (and/or CPU) is free to decide to reorder the store 
to 'jclassesInitialized = 1' up earlier within the critical section.
