That one I did not know so far, interesting. My current work around is 
to go with the fallback internal old MOP path... which means Reflection. 
Now I think Reflection is using that method as well, but my problem is a 
bit that I have no idea about the side effects of that method and its 
availability on other JDKs. Though, maybe it is less an issue for 
invokedynamic, since there are probably not many JDKs that support it.

So in general I try to avoid Unsafe... but maybe it is ok to use here?

bye Jochen
