I was working on this -- we have yet to fully analyse various failures from a Windows IPv6 only run, the build for which also  has changes from https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8279566 and some changes from https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8275640
We should have access to the test environment again next week to  execute additional test runs
