Hi Joe,
Oracle have a survey asking for feedback on sun.misc.Unsafe usage.
https://blogs.oracle.com/dave/entry/do_you_use_sun_misc
I expect they are planning on removing it in the future or creating an
alternative. Without this XStream cannot function properly. If you rely on
XStream and want to help it, please take a moment to complete the survey.
The specific method XStream uses is Unsafe.allocateInstance().
Just for the records: I did the survey. I'd use immediately an official
possibility to create instances without running the initialization, but for
now XStream relies on this method above.

Cheers,
Jörg
