VS2010 build seems to be broken because of the placing of the declarations of `low`, `high` and `index` in JDK-8314295. This is fixed by the private bug JDK-8317331: `Solaris build failed with "declaration can not follow a statement (E_DECLARATION_IN_CODE)"` which was only applied to 21u: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk21u/commit/4d078930eecfacb28a7c8324f233080eaf649334

It doesn't make sense to fix this in the merge, but I've started the process to backport this.
