This review request concerns the issue
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6378503
for which the proposed webrev is
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/6378503/
The fix consists in preventing overflowing the int type in certain places. The added test case is equivalent to the one described in the issue report insofar as I can tell but is much less computationally expensive.
Note that this patch follows that for 8020641 (approved [1]) which follows that for 8014319 (pending [2]).
Thanks,
Brian
