  view of the class loaders has been updated, in which case the
  mentioned assertion is incorrect.
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  7.0.0 SR1
  6.0.1 SR1

  loaders to a better defined point which ensures that the
  permanent class loaders are correctly configured before each GC.
