(Adding Andrew as requested).

These changes look OK to Kelly and myself.  Also, my test run on our
internal build farm called JPRT (a full control build of everything after
adding your patch) worked:

How would you like to proceed?  With the hotspot work, Tom Rodriguez (AKA 'never')
did the push as an agent for you via JPRT because that is a hotspot requirement.

I am willing to do that as well for the JDK changes, or you could create
the changeset and push yourself.  We are not quite as strict about requiring
a JPRT grid build before pushing on the JDK side.  I wish we were, but so
far I have not won that contest :-)


I filed bug ID 6891677 "java/build integrate zero assembler JDK changes" for
this, but it may not be visible externally for a day or two.

Let me know - I'd be glad to help get this changeset in.
