> Both of these stacks indicate that the "expiredTombstones" ArrayList somehow has nulls in it. It is an ArrayList of Tombstone instances and the only code that adds to it first tests that the item it is adding is not null. The only other modify operation done on it is to remove an item.
> Perhaps unsafe concurrent access is happening causing this code to see nulls.
