I'm hoping we can bulk up some of the new exception handling. I've put
suggested edits for the jdk repo together in a webrev. No major edits
here but it should help supportability of the code for the future.
Will it be possible to import these in before the bulk push ?

Thanks for bringing this up. No issue improving the exception messages,
esp. incorrect API mis-use. I note that you've changed several
InternalError where the JDK must be completely hosed (`java -version`
would fail) if they were to arise.
Given that there will be significant code churn for several months then
maybe it would be better to do a pass over the exceptions closer to JDK
9 FC. Would you be okay with that? We can create an issue in JIRA to
make sure that it doesn't get forgotten.
