Security fixes are back; other fixes can go in. Time for build 18?

Ok, no problem.

So I make it for b18 we still have:

  * the issue with the X11 patch I can't apply because of jcheck
  * Nimbus issues
  * the diff issue with HotSpot Martin pointed out

Do we also want the timezone data changes for b18 or shall we do that
in b19? I think b19's main feature is likely to be hs16.
