No point in creating new Boolean instances, Boolean.TRUE and Boolean.FALSE should be used instead.

Similar problem detected on the win32 version of Display.

This is still valid, though minor. Low hanging fruit for a beginner if anyone wants to work on it.

Eric, this looks like duplicate of 470568 . The way it was done in this bug is good enough IMHO.
