JDK-8043520 - Serviceability tests using @library failing with java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
Description
A number of serviceability fail intermittently with NoClassDefFoundError when run with jtreg and concurrency. The following is an incomplete list of the tests that are impacted:

    com/sun/tools/attach/ProviderTest.java
    java/lang/instrument/DaemonThread/TestDaemonThread.java:
    java/lang/instrument/PremainClass/PremainClassTest.java
    java/lang/instrument/PremainClass/ZeroArgPremainAgentTest.java
    sun/tools/jstatd/TestJstatdDefaults.java:
    sun/tools/jstatd/TestJstatdExternalRegistry.java:
    sun/tools/jstatd/TestJstatdPort.java:
    sun/tools/jstatd/TestJstatdPortAndServer.java:
    sun/tools/jstatd/TestJstatdServer.java:
    sun/tools/jstatd/TestJstatdUsage.java: 
    com/sun/tools/attach/BasicTests.java:
    com/sun/management/HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean/CheckOrigin.java

A typical failure is:
