Martin,

It looks like this is a test bug, introduced in this changeset.

changeset:   16112:88faebbdbf9b
user:        arapte
date:        Fri Nov 04 21:55:19 2016 +0530
summary:     8160766: [TEST_BUG] java/awt/Focus/DisposedWindow


The problem edit looks like this:


  /*
-  test
-  @bug       6386592
-  @summary   Tests that disposing a dialog doesn't activate its invisible owner.
-  @author    anton.tarasov at sun.com: area=awt.focus
-  @run       applet DisposeDialogNotActivateOwnerTest.html
+  @test
+  @key headful
+  @bug 6386592 8160766
+  @summary Tests that disposing a dialog doesn't activate its invisible owner.
  */

Note that plain "test" was edited to "@test", meaning that the file 
previously was not a standalone jtreg test, and it was changed to be 
one.  This causes a clash with an HTML test of the same base name.

jtreg correctly reports the clash, because both tests would lead to the 
same .jtr file.  i.e. you can't have two tests that only differ in their 
filename extension.
