Hi,

  https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8154447 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8154447>

This is a quick fix to allow classes under java.util.concurrent to call 
MethodHandles.lookup(), and thus unblock the use of such classes using 
VarHandles.

To verify and ensure we don’t regress i included a simple test.

These fragile checks will be revisited later under another issue.

Paul.
