Greetings,

This is a request to backport a JDK 8 fix into JDK 7u6:

7159320 3/4 change default ZIP_DEBUGINFO_FILES back to '1' after fix
             for 7133529 is available
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7159320

The fix has recently been pushed to JDK 8, as:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/cce6147632cf

and will be included in the JDK8-B36 T&L PIT snapshot.

This fix was discussed as part of the review for 7157296 on
build-dev at openjdk.java.net:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2012-March/005912.html
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2012-April/005915.html

and hotspot-dev at openjdk.java.net:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2012-March/005581.html
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2012-April/005594.html

and serviceability-dev at openjdk.java.net:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/serviceability-dev/2012-March/005673.html
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/serviceability-dev/2012-April/005687.html

The fix for 7133529 is in JDK8-B35 and should be in 7u6 soon so it's
time to change the default ZIP_DEBUGINFO_FILES back to '1'

The JDK7u6 and JDK8 jdk repo patch files are identical except for
some line numbers.

Dan
