Description
In java.util.Arrays, the "legacy merge sort" algorithm is still implemented. It should be enhanced to check for the deprecation logging properties and to issue deprecation log messages as appropriate.

The deprecation logging properties will be enabled as part of the dynamic analysis tool.
