Hi Stuart,

I just realized that I was reading your last statement wrong. I though 
it was written as:

...if the svuid is not initialized with a compile-time constant, and 
instead via a static block, the value doesn't appear in serialized form.

And not as:

...if the svuid is not initialized with a compile-time constant, and 
instead via a static block, the value doesn't appear in serialized-form.html


You were only concerned about the generated javadoc and not about the 
actual "serialized form". Ok, I get it now. I have prepared webrev.02 to 
fix this.
