 This problem is not about a VM bug, or even a code bug. It's just that Florin found an inconsistency in the state of the image. That inconsistency was introduced a couple years ago and survived unnoticed in the image until now. 

It is one of the peculiarities of having a persistent image: some bugs are not even in the code.

Fascinating. 


That makes sense. 


Analogous to the  way class state can introduce bugs, the image itself has state and can introduce a bug.
