Erik,
It could be a feature of the build (i.e. test makefiles) to verify
that no source-controlled files were modified in the course of a
test run.
Something fishy in this thread as these tests have historically not
changed the permissions of these libraries. So I'm curious how they
were run, I wonder in case they were changed by a make file instead.
make test TEST=jdk_lang
AFAIK, this should be the correct way of invoking tests from make?
I assume this make file must be running chmod, not the tests themselves
as otherwise this issue would have been noticed a long time ago. I
suspect many people run jtreg directly in their local environment rather
than the make file.
In any case, these older tests predate build test support for compiling
native code and probably should be migrated anyway.
