[7u6] Request for approval for CR 7156842 - test/java/util/zip/ZipFile/vmcrash.zip triggers McAffe virus warning

[Kelly O'Hair]

Just curious.....

Will we be making these kind of changes whenever a Anti-Virus program mis-identifies a file as being
a virus or malware?
Seems like a workaround fix, which we seem to accept for occasional OS or compiler bugs, do we now
include anti-virus software workarounds?
