From boskworks@3d3b2b6
Explanation
Previously, we were calling
Map.removein an invokedynamic bootstrap method, because once the bootstrap was complete, the map entry was no longer needed.The problem is, under certain circumstances, the JVM is allowed to call the bootstrap method multiple times. Since we had removed the map entry, subsequent calls would fail.
It's not clear whether this caused any actual problems, or merely threw spurious exceptions. I didn't observe any test failures caused by this problem, but I thought we're better safe than sorry.
Risk
This change causes some more memory to be retained in the form of entries in the
CALL_SITES_BY_NAMEmap. The way Vena uses bosk, I'd guesstimate this will consume an extra few kilobytes.
