Vinnie is on vacation, so I'll take a shot of answering this.
According to the bug record, the fix for 6763530 is in jdk7, openjdk6
and not in Oracle's jdk6 update release.
Not all bugs are backported, it's subject to RE's discretion.
I've opened a subCR against this particular release train and Vinnie can
decide what to do w/ this once he returns from vacation.
Regards,
Valerie
