Ah ok, I wasn't aware of that; thanks for the correction. It will certainly
make it easier to cherry-pick any required changes from there.

It may have happened a few years ago for later versions, but it was outside
Oracle maintainership of OpenJDK 6 [0]. The end of that pre-dates even the
switch to in-tree sources, which we mirrored with our own changes in
OPENJDK6-6 [1] and OPENJDK6-7 [2].
