But those reads and writes could be reordered, couldn't they?  The read 
of "a" could happen after the read of "b", because there's no 
happens-before relationship there (a is not volatile, nor synchronized 
in any way).

Or is that what you are saying?  The actual problem is worse.  (And I 
did in fact fubar my explanation and the my reading of the code.  It 
*is* broken though.)  I'm still looking for references, and I might be 
close.  Uno momento....
