Hi Kris,
Thank you very much for detailed explain!
We are running that specific Oracle JVM in production, and encountered a strange native memory leak, so we plan to build a debug JVM from source codes. 
Per your explain, there is no way to get source codes of Oracle HotSpot VM after JDK6u32? How to get a Oracle Hotspot VM with debug symbol?
Thanks a lot,

Yijie

Unfortunately, because of the history behind OpenJDK 6 (it's a backport of OpenJDK 7 to be a JDK6 release, rather than the open sourced version of Sun/Oracle JDK 6), there was no exact correspondence to begin with.

The repository tip of http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/hotspot/ <http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/hotspot/> <http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/hotspot/ <http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/hotspot/>> is only jdk6-b43, there’s no 1.6.0_45.
