I'm not suggesting otherwise. However, you commented when I posted the
JDK7 commit that JDK9 was in flux at present and hence it was not a good
idea to push to that repo. I posted this patch

  i) to record that this is what is needed in both JDK8/9

and

  ii) to see if you wanted the JDK8 fix pushed early

I'm happy to wait if need be.

Yes, that is what I mean. Do you want me to upgrade the level of detail
in the comment?
