RFR(XS): 8132374: AIX: fix value of os.version property

[Volker Simonis]

Hi Roger,

I've added the requested test. See:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~simonis/webrevs/2015/8132374.v1/

I've tested it on Solaris 10/11, Linux SLES 12/Ubuntu 12.04, MaxOS X
10.9 and 10.10, Windows 7 and AIX 7.1
I think it should work on all supported platforms.

OK now?

Regards,
Volker
