I thought you verified that the non-constant type test still provoke a crash 
(on x86) if you back out the code changes in 
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/commit/969f6a37e4649079c7acea1952f5537fd9ba2f0a 
? If so that test is still somewhat useful to guard against future coding 
mistakes by verifying that the bail out doesn't mess things up. The constant 
type tests have less utility, perhaps. I'd keep it as is unless there's a 
strong desire to reduce test runtime (these should be pretty quick).
