[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] <AWT Dev> [8] Please review fix for 7175183: [macosx] Objective-C exception thrown when switching monitor configuration

[Phil Race]

Alexander,

This is a shared code change. Did you test it on Windows ?
In fact, can you explain why this has not been seen on Windows
in the many years now that we've had this code ? eg, did we
recently introduce a regression, is this MacOS specific ?

-phil.
