Review request: JDK-8061924 - demos target fails if users CDPATH is incorrectly set

[Dave Pointon]

Hi all ,

Having found and already reported (at
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8061924), the above bug, I would
be indebted to you if you would be good enough to review the patch (which
is included in-line in the above due to its small size) with a view to
implementation in jdk9 and later back-porting to jdk8u. At the time of
writing, both the bug and the efficacy of the patch, have been tested on
x86, x86_64, ppc, ppc64 & ppcle platforms.

TIA & rgds ,
