--------------------------------------

I am changing the priority to {{Blocker}} since this breaks Log4j completely on Android.

> Hi Team,
> I integrated Log4j v2.3 initially and I was getting the following crash in my application.
> 05-25 09:49:59.099 E/AndroidRuntime(24561): FATAL EXCEPTION: main
> 05-25 09:49:59.099 E/AndroidRuntime(24561): java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.logging.log4j.core.lookup.JmxRuntimeInputArgumentsLookup
> Later on, I was checking the open tickets like https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-716 and found the issue to be the version that I am using.
> So, I upgraded to latest 2.8.2 version and made some modifications in the code. I see that the above JMX exception is being "caught" and printed in the console. So now I have bypassed that crash and landed in a new crash. I am pasting the stack trace below. Please have a look and advice.
