I'm in the process of updating to the b137 release to solve this
instead.  I'd rather this than we have to modify this code, and b130
didn't seem so good anyway (despite Oracle calling it out as Developer
Preview) once I realised the latest security updates weren't in it.

I'll post to the list once this is done.

In future, it would be nice if Zero/Shark updates weren't lagging so far
behind mainstream HotSpot development.  Thanks to Xerxes and Omair for
testing and finding the required changesets to update this.
