I believe that 8144539 should not be a blocker for 8080462 because: the
overlap/conflict between them does not appear to be fundamental -and has
been addressed in the current backport proposal-; 8144539 does not look
like a trivial backport -at least at first glance, given the number of
files affected-; and, 8144539 does not seem to have the same priority
than 8080462 -so a low priority backport is currently blocking a high
priority one-. Looks to me that 8144539 is not even required for
compatibility between JDKs, but 8080462 certainly is.

Thanks,
Martin.-
