Re: Puzzling class field initialization order

My understanding of the Java specification is that you should never
assume that any one thing will be initialized before any other thing. If
you need A to be initialized before B then it is best to do so
explicitly, like in a "static{}" block. This need may preclude declaring
something as final, but ... oh well.
