Sorry for delay

The fix looks good,
I see no reasons why not to push it to openJDK 6

I filed an RFE
#6759311 RepaintManager casts Tookit to SunToolkit without instanceof check

It usually requires a couple of days for CR to appear in the public database

If you would like to push to the workspace yourself,
you are welcome
