Yes, both ajc 1.2 and 1.2.1 use ThreadLocal.

I decompiled the 1.2.1 code, and I don't see any caching trick.

What is your caching trick? In the abc implementation, I see it keeps a
field of the last thread and the stack for that thread, and if it's on
the same thread, it just returns it without asking the ThreadLocal. Is
that your trick? ajc doesn't do that.
