One changeset is best.  You need somehow to revert the changeset
anyway since it'd need a proper comment, with a Sun bug id, before
being pushed upstream.  (I just created one for you: 6841728.)

(I can't resist pointing out that if you were using Mercurial patch
 queues you could just pop to that patch, edit, re-test, finalize,
 and then push the resulting changeset upstream.)
