OK, you can't get serious with that test. The failures visible at the
surface are:
  - dead-code elimination for parts of nextInt(): you should consume the
results!
  - thread start/stops are not synchronized; there are significant
chances threads are running solo for considerable amount of time.

This should be much easier to write once our microbenchmark harness goes
into OpenJDK; in the mean time, you will need to invest considerably
more time into making this right.
