Review request: JDK-8080108: [TEST_BUG] ERROR: No IPv6 address returned from platform

[Chris Hegarty]

Alexander,

Wow, that's a lot of boiler plate for a manual test. Surely a 
README.txt, or similar would be sufficient?

I noticed that with your changes, now this test has a dependency on the 
jdk.desktop module ( imports from java.awt.* ). Is it really necessary 
to have a dialog window pop-up?

-Chris.
