Reviewer needed: patch for regression test jdk/test/java/util/zip/ConstructDeflaterInput.java in IcedTea6 HEAD

[Pavel Tisnovsky]

Hi,

I'd like to push patch containing fix for regression test
jdk/test/java/util/zip/ConstructDeflaterInput.java.

This test sometimes asynchronously prints messages into JTreg log files
which causes the autobuilder to find false changes in the results of
regression tests (such messages should be redirected to appropriate .jtr
file). This behaviour can be seen here for example:

http://icedtea.classpath.org/pipermail/testresults/2011-July/003284.html
http://icedtea.classpath.org/pipermail/testresults/2011-July/003288.html

To fix this issue it's AFAIK necessary to run the test in othervm mode.

ChangeLog entry:

2011-07-12  Pavel Tisnovsky  <ptisnovs at redhat.com>

        * Makefile.am: added new patch
        * patches/jtreg-ConstructDeflaterInput-fix.patch:
        Regression test jdk/test/java/util/zip/ConstructDeflaterInput.java
        should be run in othervm mode to not to print messages to JTreg
        log files (such messages must be stored in .jtr file).

Can anybody please review this change?

Thank you in advance,
Pavel
