The reason for these intermittent failures is a deoptimization of the method before or during printing its assembly. In case that deoptimization makes the method not entrant, then the entry of that method is patched, but the relocation information is not updated. If the instruction at the method entry before patching had relocation info that prints a comment during assembly printing, printing that comment for the patched entry fails in case the operands of the original and patched instructions do not match.
