I suspect that these changes are best going directly into jdk9/dev, as 
opposed to a a downstream forest.

In may places '@library /lib/testlibrary ...' remains. Is this 
redundant, in many tests? If so, it be removed.

The changes are to the 'test' directory in the "top" repo? You are not 
proposing to add a new repo, right?

test/lib/testlibrary/jdk/testlibrary/RandomFactory.java was updated 
recently in jdk9/dev. The version in your webrev is a little out of date.

Is there any special update needed to jtreg to support this?
