At least it sucks in a somewhat different way now. :-)

** work-around **
I found out that adding a property "DATABASE" with a copy of
the value from the URL to the Properties given to the call to
getConnection(url,props) appears to work around the bug.

Nice thing is, that they really solved the old problem with
concurrent connection attempts being principially serialized.
I gave it some urls with invalid ip-addresses and some fine ones,
and even while it was waiting for the timeout on the bogus one,
it immediately connected the fine one.

DriverManager itself isn't all that complicated... it just passes
the url to all registered drivers and the first one to return a
non-null result (or exception) is the chosen one.
