Okay, I've just converted the simple test that I added earlier to a
Junit test. The test is not guaranteed to fail if there are thread
safety errors, just very likely to fail (don't know if this is
acceptable for you). Initially, I wrote a test which guaranteed that
calls to the addPackage() and getPackage() methods were interleaved by
different threads, but, annoyingly, this test passed. It seems that a
context-switch halfway through one of these methods is necessary to
provoke the problem (which is difficult to guarantee :-)
