Hi,
I would like to backport this fix from 8 to 7u.
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7199674
The source code changes apply cleanly to 7u from the 8 changeset,
however the makefile changes needed to be tweaked.
makefiles/CompileNativeLibraries.gmk did not exist in 7, so equivalent
changes are made in make/java/java/Makefile instead.
Since it's not a direct port of the 8 changes, my understanding is
that the 7-specific changes should be reviewed.
I looked at the make file changes (as that it the only part that is
different) and it okay to me. You'll need to request approval on
jdk7u-dev and probably best to do that soon if you are looking for this
in 7u60 as I think they are close to forking the stabilization forest.
