7 release, u161-b01, to go with it. This is made from the current state of the
OpenJDK 7u repositories plus backports of the new security fixes
included in 8u151.

The tarball is available here:

As before, the IcedTea release notes (http://bitly.com/it20612) are a
useful aid in understanding the relevance of each change, and notably,
which are security fixes.

Note that 8176536: Improved algorithm constraints checking and
its dependants, 8179101 & 8179998, were included in this release
after being postponed from the July 2017 u151 release.
