Several potentially useful permutations of static, native and synchronized are already missing, so I felt that removing
a no longer used variant to be in the spirit of the existing code. I think the infrastructure is easy to repair if it's
ever needed (at least easier than the act of adding an intrinsics), but if you feel strongly about it I'll add it back.
