<i18n dev> RFR (S): 7155168: java/util/TimeZone/Bug6912560.java: expected Asia/Tokyo

[Masayoshi Okutsu]

I was wondering if you plan to address the review comment by David. If 
that part gets addressed, I think the test case change is no longer 
required. Otherwise, your change to the test program is fine with me.

Thanks,
Masayoshi

This is because JFR will call TimeZone.getDefault() when it starts up, before the main() method is called. This will cause TimeZone to cache the value so that when the test calls TimeZone.getDefault() it will get the old value. The solution here is to reset the value in the beginning of the test.
