Update Virgo with org.eclipse.osgi_3.9.1 [message #1472720]

I noticed that Virgo 3.6.3 is still using the old org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.2.v20130124-134944.jar.
Is it possible to use org.eclipse.osgi_3.9.1.v20130814-1242.jar instead?

The reason is that 3.9.1 fixes an Equinox bug that affect bundle deployment and that I filed last year (ConcurrentModificationException in org.eclipse.osgi.internal.resolver.StateWriter.writeList, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=411718)

What is the process for updating the org.eclipse.osgi component in Virgo?
Thanks.

In the long run we want to Support generic container based Equinox implementation (Bug 404390).

Tom Watson from the Equinox team offered a possible short term alternative which might have less impact than updating to 3.9.1 or newer:

Also having Virgo updated to use one of the other non-deprecated writeState methods would fix the issue. [1]

If you solely care about the Bug you mentioned I suggest you open a bug to replace the deprecated method call(s) in Virgo to work around the
Equinox bug.
