[Daniel D. Daugherty]

Greetings,

I rebased the project to the 2017.10.26 jdk10/hs PIT snapshot.

Here are the updated webrevs:

Here's the mq comment for the change:

   Rebase to 2017.10.25 PIT snapshot.

Here is the full webrev:

And here is the delta webrev:

I ran the above bits throught Mach5 tier[1-5] testing over the holiday
weekend. Didn't see any issues in a quick look. Going to take a closer
look today.

We welcome comments, suggestions and feedback.

Dan, Erik and Robbin
