[7u4] Request for approval for CR 7122173 - Several Regression tests fail on MacOS

[Alexander Scherbatiy]

   Hello,

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

7122173 Several Regression tests fail on MacOS
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7122173

The fix has already been pushed to JDK 8, as:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/awt/jdk/rev/cc9ff174a1c3


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

Thank you,
  Alexandr.
