[FIXED JENKINS-12124] Occasionally errors loading plugin classes since it is expected that findClass (and findLoadedClass) are called under synchronization.
The problem was masked by a blind assumption that an InvocationTargetException was in fact wrapping a ClassNotFoundException.
Many thanks to @gotwarlost for demonstrating how to reproduce the problem and diagnosing the cause.
Disabling systemd-slave-installer until it can be fixed to be quiet on Ubuntu.
