I know this already exist but I thought binaries were disallowed in

Right, we don't want binary files checked in. The test needs to exercise
System.inheritedChannel and so requires launching the VM with
stdin/stdout/stderr connected to various types of networking sockets (to
emulate launching from inetd/xnetd). That's an awkward scenario to setup
so the test uses a custom launcher. We originally checked it in because
we couldn't assume there would be compilers installed on all machines
running the test. There's a bug open (JDK-6930061) to look at
alternatives. It's not blocker to Kumar's changes of course.
