Java 11 RC build - HTTPS handshake failure against a previously working server

Sending "supported_groups" in ServerHello does not comply to the
extension specification. Is it possible the HTTPS server fix this problem?
I filed a bug in OpenJDK for the tracking:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8209965
Thanks,
Xuelei
