Thanks to @AlanBateman for suggesting to disable possibly misleading stack traces in pre-allocated exceptions; now updated

I keep trying but failing to change commit message to something jcheck likes?

The idea here is that a non-OOME-throwing condition wait might be required for (some) memory to be reclaimed. This is not too farfetched for InterruptedException (if serving as a cancellation), so we allow it to be thrown (instead of OOME) in hopes that a catch of IE will free memory. It IS farfetched to think this might be the case for IllegalMonitorStateException, but I did it the same way for consistency.
