RFR of JDK-8176566: @since value errors in types of java.base module

[Martin Buchholz]

Thanks,

10 years ago I fixed most of the @since mistakes using a hacky script, that
may still be floating around at Oracle.  I'm curious to see how you
implemented it.  There's already a place to put tools like this; e.g.
there's my own
common/bin/blessed-modifier-order.sh

I agree that now is a good time to fix @since.  10 years ago I also did it
during a release rampdown.
