Great. :)

It looks like the TransactionSubsystemRootResourceDefinition$StatisticsEnabledHandler logic came in about a month ago. The issue may have surfaced more recently than that if the test that revealed it was not part of CI, but was something extended that Red Hat QE runs against periodic internal builds. Those happen every few weeks.

Just find it and use it in applyUpdateToRuntime/revertUpdateToRuntime neither of which will get called before system properties are set. They don’t get called at all if the user doesn’t do a write-attribute op to change that attribute.

I can tell this as I have breakpoints on where I process the property. I can see "MSC service thread 1-4" attempting to process the property (which is not set). I do later see messages that suggest the system property is set but at that the later point:
