Description
As noted by findbugs, the readObject methods of BigDecimal and MathContext are synchronized.  This is not necessary and the synchronization modifier should be removed.
Comments
SUGGESTED FIX ------- BigDecimal.java ------- 3233c3233 < private synchronized void readObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream s) --- > private void readObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream s) ------- MathContext.java ------- 334c334 < private synchronized void readObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream s) --- > private void readObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream s)
