Update webrev looks fine, just one nit:
ProviderList.java, line 671: The current output seems to suggest that
there is a match with the "==" between the two entries. Perhaps
something likedebug.println("Config match " + toString() + ": " + t + ",
" + a); Since the toString() is already reported on line 671, line 683
doesn't need to repeat this info?
Thanks,
Valerie
