Sorry, you're right.  My faulty memory was probably recalling my own
efforts in jdk6 or jdk7.

Looking more closely at the jdk8 jsr166 integration ...
The upstream integration of the code itself looks complete, but ...
- some tests didn't make it, e.g. ArrayBlockingQueue.java was integrated,
but the accompanying test ArrayBlockingQueue/IteratorConsistency.java is
only now being integrated.
- some changes made upstream weren't merged downstream (I tried to find all
such for this integration)
