I agree with Andrew that this is good clean-up.

I think the changes to 
src/share/classes/javax/xml/crypto/NoSuchMechanismException.java need 
closer examination. Removing the 3 methods that it overloads should be 
okay. Adding @since 1.8 to the existing constructor is not okay Removing 
the cause field given that it's serializable, I need to remind myself 
how this works.

A minor nit but I notice in many places where you've introduced 
multicatch that you put the vertical bar at the beginning of the next 
line whereas I think we've mostly been putting it on the right. In 
src/share/classes/javax/management/relation/RelationService.java I see 
you've got both. I don't know if coding conventions have been 
established on this.
