[8u-dev] Request for approval: 8075575/8075576: 2 com/sun/security/auth tests failed in certain env

[Weijun Wang]

Hi All

This is a request to backport a jdk9 fix into jdk8u-dev which covers two 
bugs.

    8075575: 
com/sun/security/auth/login/ConfigFile/InconsistentError.java failed in 
certain env.
    8075576: 
com/sun/security/auth/module/KeyStoreLoginModule/OptionTest.java failed 
in certain env.

The tests check for certain English text in the output, and cannot find 
if running in another locale. Tests now forced running in English.

The fix is already included in jdk9 as a single changeset at:

    http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/dev/jdk/rev/74d3a9e3d076

It was reviewed at

 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2015-April/012016.html

The patch for jdk8u-dev is identical to the one in jdk9.

The fix is test-only.

Thanks
Weijun
