I would encourage anyone who is interested to continue the review of Rémi's patch. More review is always helpful and there was at least once case that Rémi identified where he thought the patch could be improved with additional effort. 

TL;DR -- If you can find more to fix in java.util, Rémi++ patch would be welcomed by all.
