Hi Afshin, it is probably not a 'false positive' case .
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8331201
stays open; it is just excluded for now, to be able to build ubsan-enabled binaries without  special switches or patches .
At some point in time JDK-8331201 could be addressed (see the comments of Axel on this JBS bug).
