It was added thru

   http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/9de97594f062

At first I thought this is the reason and the machine does shows an 
environment variable http_proxy. However, I unset it and nothing 
changed. After some println it seems the test only hangs at loading the 
java.awt.Button class.

Also, aren't

   java.net.useSystemProxies=false
   http.nonProxyHosts=localhost|127.*|[::1]

default in net.properties? Shouldn't JRE on macosx honor them?

I put it there. It is a test in sun/security but the reason is net (No 
PortUnreachableE on macosx). I thought putting it in the java_net 
section would alert networking guys more. :)
