@bplb Test is fixed now. Sorry for the delay. I have updated the test (contained in https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/17119/commits/556a8dc4d3d8ff157e8374625eb129a08926e0dd) and successfully tried it with the original code (test fails) and the fixed code (test succeeds). IMHO this should do the job.
