No, I don't think you misunderstood the problem. What you've tried should
demonstrate the problem I experienced. But, as I said, it was a *random*
problem.

It's pretty hard for me to give a more concrete example as the actual problems
occurred inside a fairly large project.

What I can tell is, in one instance, I implemented a Singleton (as per GOF's
patterns) using a static variable. However, when the singleton was used by a
GUI object, it became null... Then, I added a couple of print statements (to
debug) and it suddenly worked again! Then, I added some extra lines of code for
the business logic, it didn't work again...

It was frustrating.
