[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] Still waiting for review

Hi,

Same issue here as Martin. The following two patches are still waiting:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.openjdk.2d.devel/498

Martin, if you like we can use IcedTea http://icedtea.classpath.org/ as
staging area for these fixes. That is what I do after testing. The above
two fixes are already in IcedTea6 for a couple of months since I know
other users are seeing the same bugs. That way things are at least
picked up in a timely manner for the various GNU/Linux distros out
there. http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea6

Cheers,
