I don't have a strong opinion as to whether it uses toString or depends 
on sun.rmi.server.RegistryImpl. The main thing is that I think it will 
be a lot more reliable to bind to an ephemeral port when compared to 
find an unused port.

Just so you know, I grabbed the patch from your webrev and tried it out, 
it was nice to see close to x4 improvement when running these tests with 
-concurrency:auto on an 4-core system.
