Hi,

I would like to backport the fix for S7102369 to icedtea6.

The fix is already in jdk6, but missed the jdk6b24 cutoff: 
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/jdk/rev/6b46f3c7c97c

This fixes a regression caused by the recent security update that 
requires rmiregistry to be started with java.rmi.server.codebase 
property set. Additional details can be found in this bug report: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=751203

The patch for HEAD is attached. If no one has any objections, I will 
prepare patches for 1.9 and 1.10 as well.

ChangeLog:
2011-12-12  Omair Majid  <omajid at redhat.com>

     S7102369, S7094468: remove java.rmi.server.codebase property
     parsing from rmiregistry
     * patches/openjdk/7102369-7094468-rmiregistry.patch: New file.
     Backport from OpenJDK6.
     * Makefile.am (ICEDTEA_PATCHES): Apply the patch.

Any thoughts or comments?

Thanks,
Omair
