      The specifications of the shutdown sequence in java.lang.Runtime, as well as addShutdownHook(), require some adjustments to coordinate with changes being made by Alex Buckley to JLS 12.8, which covers program exit, thread destruction, and halting of the VM. There should be a concise explanation of the "shutdown sequence" in the Runtime class specification.
