I'll try a build with this, but it looks good from a cursory glance
and based on it being a backport of the jdk7 work.
With the weekend in between, I lost track of what was happening with
the jdk7 version. I take it you committed to tl. Should I revise the
ALT_DROPS_DIR patch against tl and post a new webrev? By the look of
this patch, the fix is also needed here (I see devtools lurking
again).
My concern, as I've just mentioned on the other thread, is how
security updates will now be handled. This is more crucial with
OpenJDK6 than 7 at present, so I think we need a known strategy for
this before pushing this changeset.
