Request for approval for 7154030 - java.awt.Component.hide() does not repaint parent component

[Seán Coffey]

Jonathan,

A bug fix can introduce behavioural changes which should not be allowed 
in update releases.

In fact, I've just noticed that this fix caused issue in JCK 
verification for JDK 8.
See http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7168144 which is 
linked to 7154030

I think you may either have to get a swing engineer to review for this 
port to 7u or start a specific thread for it on swing-dev.
If swing reviewers do approve this for backporting, then 7168144 
changeset will also need porting (simple tag fix for JCK test issue)

Regards,
Sean.
