I guess I don't see the point of this particular ticket. This PR doesn't contain any useful change, because it is entirely subsumed in JDK-8335547. Why add code here and bother reviewers (even slightly), when the actual fix is to just remove the code? Even as an interim fix, it's mostly a waste of time for an issue that has existed for 13 years.
