Hi all,

I would like to backport the fix for:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8188030

To OpenJDK8 updates dev:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u-dev

The fix is slightly different than the fix for 10 [1] since we want to
preserve the status for the Oracle build that I'm told does not
support the CFF fonts in 8:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~neugens/8188030/webrev-jdk8.01/

I apologise for continually asking this, I promise I'll write this
down this time, but I don't remember what's the next step after that,
just push the fix after approval with the same bug id, right?

Cheers,
Mario
