<AWT Dev> [9] Review request for 8159904: [TEST_BUG] Failure on solaris of java/awt/Window/MultiWindowApp/MultiWindowAppTest.java

[Semyon Sadetsky]

Phil,

this is a jdk9 issue found on Solaris 11.3. But jdk8 should not be very 
different.

Much appreciate it if you will be able to run 
java/awt/Window/MultiWindowApp/MultiWindowAppTest.java on Solaris 10.

But I'm not sure about Solaris 10 WM Gnome version. Its behavior can be 
different.
