Looks fine to me.  As per the tests for the Vector serialization, you 
might want to check the format of the date range in the headers.

I hate bringing up code style/conventions (as it only starts wars) but 
you might want to check the "implements Serializable" at L76 of 
SerializationDeadlock.java as it looks like it's not indented. Same 
thing with the "throws IOException" as line 82. I can't tell from the 
webrev if this is due to tabs or something else but I noticed it in the 
webrev for the Vector fix too.

I didn't see that one, sorry. Anyway, I think Mike is going help get 
these pushed.
