I agree. Pushing through TL will expose the patch to more testing and
will make it easier to patch it. I think you are right that this is
what we should do with this patch.
However, I'm still worried that there will be a need to manually
resolve several conflicts with changes done in the build forest in the
meantime. But I'm interpreting your answers as I should not worry
about that.

I just checked and it looks like that are only 3 or 4 changes in
jdk8/build that are not in jdk8/tl. Are these going into jdk8/jdk8 this
week? If not then could you just pull them into jdk8/tl before pushing
the changes that remove the old build?
As regards timing then jdk8/tl currently has ~50 changes backed up for
jdk8-b117. Lana usually takes the snapshot for integration on Wednesday
@ 10am PT. It might be best to wait for this week's snapshot to be taken
before pushing the big changes to jdk8/tl. If Wednesday > 10am PT delays
you then we could ask Lana about taking the snapshot early or else just
skipping the integration for b117.
