Hi,

This is a request to backport a JDK 8 fix into JDK 7u4:

   7106773: 512 bits RSA key cannot work with SHA384 and SHA512
   http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7106773

The fix has already been pushed to JDK 8, as:
   http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/11e52d5ba64e

The code changes for jdk7u4 are identical to the ones in jdk8.

We need to backport the fix to make sure the DHE cipher suites for TLS
1.2 works with small RSA keys.

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


Regards,
Xuelei
