Hi Michal, Short answer: No.
Longer answer: a. in my experience issues relating to thread safety can sometimes be a little tricky to reproduce, let alone to reproduce consistently (I do note your use of 'almost unfailing'). I get the impression that Jonathan may in face have such an example, but whether or not he can provide it and whether or not it can be formulated into a test case is another story. b. either it is thread safe or it isn't - if it isn't then the fix is required (the added performance and javadoc are also beneficial). I am trusting Jonathan's statement that the matcher and compiler are not thread safe. All in all I am seeking to ensure that my test cases work correctly. To this end I had implemented Jonathan's patch locally. I simply volunteered to provide the patch for commit because Jonathan lacked the facilities to do so himself. Can you please clarify the motivation for your query? Are you promoting a "no patches without test cases" philosophy or is there something special about this particular change that concerns you?
