Hi,

Requesting permission to push a fix for CR 7106277 to jdk7u4, simple fix.

7106277: Brokenness in the seqNumberOverflow of MAC
         http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7106277

The fix has already been included in JDK 8 as:
    http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/30900a1a9cfc

The patch for jdk7u4 is identical to the one in JDK 8. The fix had been
reviewed in security-dev at openjdk.java.net mail list:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2011-October/003984.html

I intend to push it to
    ssh://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u-dev-gate/jdk

Regards,
Xuelei
