RFR: 8219585: [TESTBUG] sun/management/jmxremote/bootstrap/JMXInterfaceBindingTest.java passes trivially when it shouldn't

[Daniel Fuchs]

Hi Severin,

If you can update WAIT_FOR_JMX_AGENT_TIMEOUT_MS in 
JMXAgentInterfaceBinding.java
to 20000, in you webrev.04, then I believe you should
be good to go and push the changes.

This seems to fix the instability I had observed with
fastdebug VMs.


best regards,
