Benson Margulies commented on SUREFIRE-954:
-------------------------------------------

I can now describe the condition that triggers this behavior, but I suspect 
that it's more of a JVM issue than a JUnit or Surefire issue.

Some native code called DeleteGlobalRef on the wrong ref, and then tried to use 
it from within a native method from within an @After method. This caused the 
JVM to throw something -- I can't really figure out what, because neither 
Eclipse nor IntelliJ is very good at explaining it. That wierd exception gets 
picked up by reflection and packaged into the target of an 
InvocationTargetException, and everything goes downhill from there. It sure 
seems as if the JVM has picked an 'exotic' class loader to put it in, but I 
can't find any evidence.
