> This change adds an option **EnableWaitForParallelLoad** to enable the legacy 
> behavior where the VM will manage synchronization for multiple threads 
> loading the same class using a non-parallel capable class loader that have 
> released the class loader lock.  The VM will break the class loader lock for 
> parallel threads trying to load the class, and wait for the first thread that 
> initiated loading the class to complete.  The subsequent threads will use the 
> result of the first thread, rather than get a LinkageError: duplicate class 
> definition for loading the class without synchronization.
> Releasing the class loader lock was a common workaround for class loaders 
> that used a non-hierarchical delegation scheme to avoid deadlock, before 
> parallel capable class loading was added.
