OpenJDK 6 build 16 source bundle posted

[Joseph D. Darcy]

Without further adieu, the source bundle for OpenJDK 6 b16 is available 
from

    http://download.java.net/openjdk/jdk6/

and the OpenJDK 6 Mercurial repositories 
(http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6) will be tagged with the build 
information accordingly.

The previous source bundle was for b14.  There was no distinct b15 per 
se; b15 was used to mark the transition from teamware to Mercurial.  The 
b16 build is the first to be done purely in Mercurial.

There were 45 bug fixes in this build ranging from security fixes to 
sound updates; OpenJDK 6 b16 has all relevant security fixes from the 
recent JDK synchronized security release.  A few fixes of note, during a 
build importing binary plugs now defaults to false (6781572 "Default to 
IMPORT_BINARY_PLUGS=false for OpenJDK 6 builds") and several fixes were 
applied that should render a few IcedTea patches unnecessary:

   6736248 EnumEditor bug. Class check incorrect
   6733718 test /java/awt/FullScreen/UninitializedDisplayModeChangeTest/ 
fails
   6593946 (bf) X-Buffer.compact() does not discard mark as specified
   6778493 Fix (langtools) ant build to honor fcs MILESTONE setting

The other non security bugs fixed in this build are:

6761791: Crash in the FontManager code due to use of JNIEnv saved by 
another thread
