The system-wide CookieHandler is read and stored in the

will not reflect any changes made to the default system-wide
CookieHandler after it is created.
It is unspecified what effect changing the system-wide CookieHandler
will have on the HTTP Client, but is seems reasonable that the two
parts of the HTTP Client implementation, HttpURLConnection and
HttpClient, should use the same CookieHandler. HttpClient should use
the instance specific (most recently retrieved system-wide
CookieHandler) from HttpURLConnection.
