Great, thanks.

OK, targeting both 11.0.6-openjdk and 11.0.6-oracle seems reasonable. As you 
noted, it looks like a backport is pending for 11.0.6-oracle. An email from 
Goetz L a couple weeks ago [1] says that changes pushed to [OpenJDK] jdk11u-dev 
will end up in 11.0.6. So it seems that I could just push this to jdk11u-dev, 
and then work internally to move ahead with the 11.0.6-oracle backport, and this 
will end up with the desired outcome.

Is that right?

Just making extra sure because I not too familiar with working on the OpenJDK 
update releases.

Thanks.
