2 new failures (a fix is in progress) - Re: starting OpenJDK6 B26 promotion process

[Lana Steuck]

The test failures were fixed (thank you, Sean!).
The restarted build passed and all the tests passed on all platforms,
except one known failure on solaris: java/io/File/BlockIsDirectory.java
    (the test was deleted in 8, and probably should be deleted in 6 as well)

Sent a request to Oracle RE to run an official build and publish the 
sources.
Once this is done, I will tag the repos and the forest will be opened.

Please defer your changes until it's finished and the repos are tagged 
with jdk6-b26 tags.

Thank you,
Lana
