Review + pull request: update FJP

[Aleksey Shipilev]

Sure, but I think lambda/lambda is already ahead, and for a reason:
performance investigations for lambdas require latest and greatest code.
In this particular case, this involves more changes in lambda code itself.

The jsr166 -> jdk8 -> lambda turnaround is longer than bearable for
active development.
