Description
The current DownloadManager initialization begins before VM completes its initialization during System.initializeSystemClass is called.  However, the DownloadManager's static initializer assumes that the VM initialization has completed. For example, it is using java.io.FileOutputStream.

The DownloadManager initialization has to be revisited to make sure that the initialization sequence is properly implemented.

Comments
EVALUATION This has been fixed by 6612680. The fix for 6612680 changes that the download manager will not start until the VM completes the initialization (see also 6888880).
