The test has become unstable recently, there were quite a few failures, on Windows mostly. I was lucky enough to find a host where the test failed consistently.
I call `System.gc()` directly as suggested in comments to the bug. I used `PhantomReference` instead of `WeakReference`.
Now the test calls `System.gc()` in a loop and waits for the reference to be enqueued. In majority of cases, the test exits the loop at the second attempt.
