A good spot by yourself ... as the focus was on the BindException correction and the pass condition is an Exception being thrown, it was easy to miss the break for a failure condition ... a similar issue existed in the current test albeit only if an InvocationTargetException with a nested BindException was thrown and the retry resulted in the InvalidClassException or UnmarcshalledException !! ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/7589
