IMHO if Log4J fails we have no chances to keep our behavour and must follow
RI here.

I've tried Log4j on Harmony and found there are many failures caused
by one difference between RI and Harmony. The
Throwable.printStackTrace(PrintWriter) calls the *println* method of
PrinterWriter on RI whereas calls *print* twice(Obviously print
msssage then print a line separator) on Harmony. It will cause
different behavior when a user inherit the PrinterWriter and override
these two methods. Shall we fix it or leave as an non-bug difference?

refer to testcase below,

public class TestThrow {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        MyWriter mw = new MyWriter(System.out);
        Throwable throwable = new Exception("Just Testing");
        throwable.printStackTrace(mw);
    }
}
class MyWriter extends PrintWriter {
    public MyWriter(OutputStream out) {
        super(out);
    }

    public void print(String s) {
        System.out.println("print");
    }

    public void println(String s) {
        System.out.println("println");
    }
}
OUTPUTS:
RI
println
HARMONY
print
print
