That's a race condition.  The two collections are Vectors so another
thread can add the listener between your assertion point and the
add call.

Also, if this really is considered to be very bad behavior on the
part of the application, maybe these should be real tests with
exceptions thrown, so they can't be disabled when assertions are
turned off in the JRE?
