> Both of these stacks indicate that the "expiredTombstones" ArrayList somehow
> has nulls in it. It is an ArrayList of Tombstone instances and the only code
> that adds to it first tests that the item it is adding is not null. The only
> other modify operation done on it is to remove an item.
> Perhaps unsafe concurrent access is happening causing this code to see nulls.
