[8u-dev] Request for approval for CR 8130735: javax.swing.TimerQueue: timer fires late when another timer starts

[Anton Litvinov]

Hello Rob,

Thank you for approval for push of this backport fix. Yes, there is a 
reason of absence of the regression test in the original fix. Originally 
the author of the fix had intention to mark the bug with "noreg-hard" 
label, but, probably, occasionally it was not marked. Please find the phrase

"it is hard to write a stable test scenario, so the bug is labeled 
noreg-hard"

in the next e-mail from the review thread. I would like to inform you 
that "noreg-hard" label has just been added to the bug record.

Thank you,
Anton
