> VMMagic implementation in JET compiler was initially prototyped but was never actually used/tested except several particular places in class initializers (DRLVM server mode uses JET compiler for <clinits>)
> JET has several problems with magic implementation today:
> 1) Magic types are reported to GC. So if GC happend during class initialization DRLVM will fail
> 2) Magic types are incorrectly stored to fields on EM64T platform with compressed references mode enabled.
> The only scenario affected today is GCv5 server mode support for EM64T platform where field of Address type is used.
