Ah thanks. I can see the difference with and without the patch. Looks
fine to me. One minor nitpick .. the ChangeLog entry needs a newline
between the header and the next line. i.e.:

----

2011-09-12  Jiri Vanek <jvanek at redhat.com>
	* tests/jnlp_tests/: all current reproducers
	...

----

to

----

2011-09-12  Jiri Vanek <jvanek at redhat.com>

	* tests/jnlp_tests/: all current reproducers
	...

----

After above change, OK for HEAD.

Cheers,
Deepak
