Turkish time on Dec 31, 2004, the new Turkish lira (TRY) replaced the
old lira (TRL) at 1,000,000:1. You may note that this was exactly 10
years ago today.
Some enterprising long-ago coder included a sanity test that all
currency conversions happen within 10 years of the current moment, but
clearly they must have meant "no more than 10 years into the future".
To correct this, I remove the Math.abs() from the code in question.
I admit to not being familiar with the bug submission and patch
submission process for OpenJDK, but hopefully as a trivial fix there is
no issue with copyright assignment or other technicalities. I just
submit this in hope that it avoids more folks wasting their time on this
issue.
