I was unable to reproduce it more than the one time, so I am opening this issue to track it in case it happens again after those 2 PRs are merged. I attempted to reproduce it on all 3 upstream branches without success (even when I placed `[Repeat(25)]` on it).
Since the combination of those 3 branches is much more stable than any of them on their own, it seems like merging them should take priority over tracking this issue down.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with src/Lucene.Net.Tests.Facet/Taxonomy/Directory/TestDirectoryTaxonomyWriter.cs, especially TestConcurrency() around line 325. Run the test with the supplied seed and culture settings, then investigate the intermittent category-count mismatch. Done means identifying the cause and adding a reliable fix or regression coverage.
