Although I haven't rebuilt Derby with this patch included, I'm 95% 
certain that DERBY-2905 is indeed the cause.  Although I'd solved the 
AntiGC thread problem, I still couldn't redeploy more than 15-16 times. 
  I added code to the servlet so that when it was shut down it manually 
unloaded all the JDBC drivers (including the AutoloadedDriver), and now 
I can redeploy 50 times without a problem.  That's basically the same os 
the proposed fix for DERBY-2905.
