Here's a request for approval to backport 8020669 into 7u-dev repository.

Bug: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8020669
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~igerasim/8020669/0/webrev/
JDK 8 Changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/54329c24c2f4
JDK 8 Review Thread: 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-July/019082.html

The jdk8-export patch doesn't clearly apply here.
That's because, there had been another change [1] made to the same code 
in jdk8 that wasn't backported to jdk7.
The proposed fix addresses both issues 8020669 and 8014928.

Thanks,
Ivan
