Regression test failures - could not find entries in JDK Bug System

Hi Vitaly,

A little bit of background, the purpose of the posting of EA build 
results is to provide consistent, reproducible
results that people can generate and compare against in their own 
environment.

To this end, we do not run the awt, swing and 2d tests, as there are so 
many variables and the results
can be inconsistent.

As I mentioned above, we don't run these tests as part of the regular 
testing see NOTE 2
http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/9/testresults.html

With the exception of awt, swing and 2d, the test results or any 
differences from one build to another are highlighted in the  diff column.

This link works for me, can you retry ?

In the test results page - for example 
http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/9/testresults.html

The summary link provides a link to the tests that ran successfully. The 
diff column provides a link to the failures that are different to the 
previous build by component  - jdk, hotspot & langtools

I hope that helps.
