FYI, a quick census of jdk9 hotspot/src post-patch reveals 617 lines (.hpp and .cpp) containing PTR_FORMAT and 803 lines containing INTPTR_FORMAT (search as word, obviously).  This would add about 3000-5000 lines to the existing 7200 line patch.  However, the semantic content of the additional changes is trivial; the work could be done almost entirely mechanically (and would be done almost entirely mechanically to reduce the risk of human error).

Opinions?

David
