[7u-dev] Request for approval to backport 8005646: TEST_BUG: java/rmi/activation/ActivationSystem/unregisterGroup/UnregisterGroup leaves process running

Tue Feb 5 17:35:58 PST 2013

Hi all,

This backport is a fix to a particular RMI test. It had a bad race condition 
that occasionally left a process running. Gory details in the bug report.

This test is actually on the problem list in 7u -- it's not in 8. I'll leave it 
on in 7u for the moment until I do a comprehensive removal of RMI tests from 
the problem list.
