RFR(XS): 8080733 - [TESTBUG] several runtime/ErrorHandling/* tests time out on Windows

[Christian Tornqvist]

Hi David,

No, it removes some of the extra test cases I added for Windows. I can't
think of a way around this that doesn't involve adding a sleep in the test
to let the JVM start up, which is a really bad workaround since it'll be
heavily dependent on what machine/concurrency you run with and will also
slow down the test quite a lot.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi Christian,

Doesn't this effectively remove all testing of +CreateCoreDumpOnCrash?
