I have created an issue for fixing the introduced regression and created a regression test that would have caught the error (fix a bug, write a test...).

8008785: IdentityHashMap.values().toArray(V[]) broken by JDK-8008167

So this patch tries to preserve the behavior when there is a concurrent modification (which is only possible from other thread and is illegal usage anyway since IHM is not thread-safe) while executing the toArray methods on the views...
