I've added a review showing the differences to jdk8 to:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~robm/5049299/7/webrev.02/

I've updated the previous webrev ( 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~robm/5049299/7/webrev.01/ ) in place to 
reflect the comment change.

Note: still putting together a separate test which will call Basic.java 
with the correct parameters on each platform.
