A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
With OpenJDK, When running Jmockit test cases, JVM hangs with class initialization phase.
With OracleJDK, it works fine with same code(No JVM hangs).

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
IDE: Eclipse Kepler (Version: Kepler Service Release 1, Build id: 20130919-0819)
1. Create a new maven project and add junit, jmockit dependency with below lines:
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.8.1</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.googlecode.jmockit</groupId>
<artifactId>jmockit</artifactId>
<version>1.5</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
2. Create a simple test case, with @before method, new a inner class.
3. Run test cases with OpenJDK.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
No hangs with OpenJDK
ACTUAL -
Hangs on line 424 of class: InstrumentationImpl.transform after run into native method InstrumentationImpl.redefineClasses0


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
Test case:
package com.ebay.jmockit.demo.jdemo;

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import mockit.Verifications;

import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;

/**
 * Unit test for simple App.
 */
public class AppTest
{

@Before
public void setUpExpectations(){
new Verifications() {
{



}
};
}

@Test
public void first_demo ()
{

assertEquals("demo"!=null, true);

}
}


---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Use OracleJDK instead of OpenJDK.
