Binary-only data contained in regression test hotspot/test/runtime/7020373

[Keith McGuigan]

That test case was created directly as output from a Java program --  
there is no "source code" for it.  The generating program was  
submitted as an attachment to 6878713, but with different input  
parameters, IIRC, and was created by Marc Schoenefeld (sorry I don't  
know his email).  Not sure what the licensing terms are on his  
submission; you'll have to check with him.
