This mostly look good to me.

One comment on the M&M tests that still run in samevm mode, is that it 
might be nicer to restore the settings in a finally block. That will 
ensure they are restored in the event that the test fails.  That could 
work in test/java/lang/management/ThreadMXBean/{Enable,Disable}Test.java 
for example.  Also in 
test/java/lang/management/MemoryMXBean/CollectionUsageThreshold.java.

Thanks for removing 
sun/management/jmxremote/bootstrap/JvmstatCountersTest.java from the 
list - I didn't realize it was the problem list when fixing 6950927. I 
notice you've also removed a few java/util/ResourceBundle and 
java/util/Locale tests from the problem - is this list problem list 
maintenance?
