main.java
---------
public class main {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
     for (;;) {
       Object o = t.class.newInstance();
     }
  }
}


t.java
-------
public class t {
   public t() { System.out.println("HELLO WORLD"); }
}


Steps to reproduce:

1) start the debuggee with

 java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=9999 main

2) attach jdb using

  jdb -attach 9999

3) in jdb prompt, set breakpoint by

  stop at main:4

4) in jdb prompt execute 'cont' command 6 or more times

5) change the line
    System.out.println("HELLO WORLD");
in t.java as
    System.out.println("new message");

6) recompile t.java

7) in jdb prompt, redefine t using
  redefine t ./t.class

8) after redefine execute "cont" command few times. We don't see the
new println "new message" output in debuggee as expected. Instead,
we still see the old message "HELLO WORLD".
