Hi all ,
By way of a heads-up, I deem that the nature and relative size of the
change (incorporating the comments from both Erik & David) now requires
a webrev, so one has been generated and is awaiting hosting up on
openjdk - of which further news as and when available.
On the point of which, I note that the contributor guide
(http://openjdk.java.net/contribute/) claims that patches may be either
in the body of, or attached to, e-mails but as we all know, attachments
are removed - is this because they are ZIP files, or are ALL attachments
removed be as it may and the guide is wrong in this respect ?
