Yes, as I just replied to Ivan in private mail, the easiest process is:

$ hg log -R ../../jdk7/jdk -k 8051359
 changeset:   7838:8268d82995af
 tag:         jdk7u75-b08
 parent:      7831:59e7d20cef24
 user:        dmarkov

 summary:     8051359: JPopupMenu creation in headless mode with JDK9b23 causes NPE

$ hg export -R ../../jdk7/jdk -r 7838|hg import -

Only if that fails should you need to do a manual commit, and you can then
use -u to override the default user.
