There's some doubt as to whether fetching the toString class variable
twice is thread-safe.

See long thread in Harmony [1] and [2]

[1] 
http://harmony.markmail.org/message/ud3c6ngyfjeymdga?q=data+reordering+hashCode
[2] http://jeremymanson.blogspot.com/2008/12/benign-data-races-in-java.html

Also HARMONY-6404.

It would be safer to use a temp. local String and return that.
