The (refactored) code itself will be looked at by (presumably) a greater number of people over a far greater period of time. Less of a judgement call.

As I understand, the purpose of the piece is to find the "new" X11GraphicsDevice with the screen number same to the given "old" GraphicsConfiguration.

I am not sure that we can have some "old" and "new" devices which have the same screen id.
 * If the list of devices was not changed then the "screenid" for old device is the index of that "old" device in the device array. So the new and old devices are the same.
 * If the list of devices was changed, then the "screenid" for the old device was invalidated, and it is again an index of that "old" device in the device array.

Please take a look to the fix for JDK-6804747, initially that method get the screen index as a parameter, and then replaced by the GC. The code of the method did not changed but the index just requested from the GC.

Probably the code is just buggies?
