This fix was intended to catch a supposedly rare error return value from WaitForMultipleObjects in the shared memory transport for JDI. Unfortunately the error is not so rare (which should have been discovered during testing of the fix) and the fix has caused all the JDI tests on windows to become unstable.
While we investigate if the fix can be applied together with changes in the code (so that the error does not happen), I would like to backout the fix.
The backout will also have to be applied to 8u20 and 7u80 since the fix was backported there without sufficient baking in 9.
