Hi,
The Klass::verify_on() is sometimes called on unloading klasses. It then
reads a dead mirror, without using AS_NO_KEEPALIVE, which can make GC
barriers feel like :C (because that should *never* normally happen). In
order to make barriers happy, AS_NO_KEEPALIVE should be used when
loading dead oops.
