Glad to hear that. Thanks for testing!

I assume those are corresponding bugs I filed:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8183131
   core-libs/j.l.i [MVT] 2-slot type (long & double) support is broken 
in LambdaFormBuilder

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8183132
   core-libs/j.l.i [MVT] MHI.unboxResultHandle misses unboxing step for 
Q-types

On the JDK side, the changes are pretty sound in the current shape. I 
planned to shepherd the fixes into the repo, but neither did extensive 
testing nor finalized the actual fixes. Feel free to take care of them.

My near-term plans are: (1) implement missing LF intrinsics and (2) look 
into box elimination issues on JIT-compiler side.

Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
