The bug is in our database, and it is targeted for JDK 8. So sooner or 
later there will be a fix.

Also, why do you think it is important to hit "Oracle's radar"? OpenJDK 
is an open source project, and anyone can look at our bugs database and 
find an interesting task to work on. If you wish, you could develop a 
fix for this issue yourself, and we'd be happy to review it on this 
mailing list.
