Looks good to me.

Note that a blank line crept in TestHelpOption.java, that you may way to 
remove before pushing the change.

   * @summary  Make sure that --help, -helpfile and -nohelp options work correctly.
- * @author   jamieh
+
   * @library ../../lib

It has been identified that some of the tests use @author tags, meaningfully as part of their scenarios. More effort is required to find out which, if any, tags can safely be removed from those tests.
