I definitely prefer solution 2. Just a few minor comments:

- Use the javadoc @inheritDoc tag instead of copying the javadoc for the
initCause method.

- PreventOverridingOfChaining

lines 68, 71: what do these comments mean?

one additional test that would be useful to add would be to call initCause twice
for those ctors that don't have a Throwable parameter, and make sure initCause
throws IllegalStateExc.
