FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_01-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_01-b01, mixed mode)

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Concurrent modification exception is not thrown on the
second to last iteration of an iterator.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Compile and run the small test program -- it should
   die with concurrent modification exception.  If the
   item removed from the list is anything but "c" it works.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expected a concurrent modification exception in this case:
Iterator iter = list.iterator();
while(iter.next()) {
   Object o = iter.next();
   if(2nd to last item in list) {
      list.remove(o); // <-- expected exception here!
   }
}

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
the problem is the lack of an exception

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
