Quoting from the original bug  review request:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2014-June/014254.html
"This
is a problem when one parameter is of size_t type and the second of
uintx type and the platform has size_t defined as eg. unsigned long as
on s390 (32-bit)."

Hope that helps,
Chris
