Reports calls to notify() and notifyAll() not within a corresponding synchronized statement or synchronized method.

Calling these methods on an object without holding a lock on that object will result in an IllegalMonitorStateException being thrown. Such a construct is not necessarily an error, as the necessary lock may be acquired before the containing method is called, but it's worth looking at.
