Yep. In my opinion this is a bot problem here and need other place to discuss.

@prrace:  Not really. 
The way to work with problems differ. Both bugs - maybe these are more quality change requests than bugs - are bullet lists and are created on build process. The different is, I work on single quality tests and remove deprecated code from source base. So in my clean Java build the method java.io.File.toUrl() does not(!) exist. 
Because java.io.File.toURL() doesn't exist, also two patches are needed for JDK build process (internal I use diff-patch).

I'm not sure, what you want to listen. I work with a clean Java build with patch to remove java.io.File.toURL() and change the collateral damages.
