I've seen this Bugreport as well, but I don't believe setting createInfo
to null fixes this bug, they need to run static Initializers as
suggested in the Bugreport.

Anyway, I extracted the changes made for fixing the mentioned bug. I
believe the real fix is made in net.sf.cglib.core.ReflectUtils and the
changes in MethodProxy are merely accidental. I am attaching the changes
made.

Lastly, createInfo is not accessed after init() is run, according to my
analysis. So not setting it to null just uses a little more heap than
necessary.

They're probably going to tell you to fix mockito. Well, I would tell
you. See lines 19-32 on 
https://github.com/mockito/mockito/blob/master/src/org/mockito/internal/creation/cglib/MockitoNamingPolicy.java

Mockito is accessing a private member variable via reflection and
failing loudly if it cannot. 

My first priority is fixing mockito in Debian, including wheezy. But
fixing mockito is more complicated, as far as I see. 

So, my plan of action is as follows: 
 1. Get a cglib with my patch accepted for the next pointrelease
 2. After 1., revert the patch and issue a bug report against mockito. 
 3. Fix the issue in mockito, probably pushing the patch upstream.

Geez, I wish i could assign this bug to both cglib and mockito.

Greetings

Stefan
