Hi Shanliang,

Your changes looks good to me. WRT using a Phaser, it would
require a careful analysis to assert that modifying the
locking strategy - especially things like
   90             synchronized(o) {
   91                 synchronized(this) {
   92                     gotLock = true;
   93
   94                     this.notify();
   95                 }
still preserve the nature of the test.
I wonder if it's worth the trouble.

best regards,
