Rework #1427 due to goofy merge shenanigans.
There was a case in the field on an IBM J9 JVM, where an instance returned from
ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean()
could not be cast safely to thecom.sun.management.ThreadMXBean
, even thought that class can be found on the classpath.It looks like other implementations have also encountered this, and so this fix is inspired by those other workarounds.
