Hi Jacob,

Please familiarize yourself with how fixes are added to older versions
of OpenJDK: 
http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk8u/groundrules.html

In other words, please rebase this patch against jdk9 and get it
committed there first. Then you can start looking into backports.

As for 6, I am not sure this patch is applicable. To quote
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk6-dev/2013-March/002890.html:

OpenJDK 6 is a legacy project.  People only use it because they want
long-term stability and compatibility.  Therefore, only changes that
fix significant bugs should be made.  This is not a policy change from
that discussed on http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk6/

Thanks,
Omair
