The patch...

Based on discussion earlier this week, I'd like the following patch to get committed to our trunk.
It introduces a new block statement
SYNCHRONIZED-ON <object> body
And, just to be clear, this patch meets Anton Vodonosov's caution that "synchronized" has semantics associated with memory synchronization because it implements SYNCHRONIZED-ON directly in the bytecode compiler just as Java (the language) does, right? So the whole "happens-before" semantics mentioned in the JLS should be met?
