IcedTea 2.1 Released! (OpenJDK7 ~u3 release)

The IcedTea project provides a harness to build the source code from
OpenJDK using Free Software build tools, along with additional
features such as a PulseAudio sound driver and support for alternative
virtual machines.

The IcedTea 2.1 release updates our OpenJDK7 support to include the
latest updates in u2  (http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u2/) as
well as the security updates just released:

* S7082299, CVE-2011-3571: Fix in AtomicReferenceArray
* S7088367, CVE-2011-3563: Fix issues in java sound
* S7110683, CVE-2012-0502: Issues with some KeyboardFocusManager method
* S7110687, CVE-2012-0503: Issues with TimeZone class
* S7110700, CVE-2012-0505: Enhance exception throwing mechanism in ObjectStreamClass
* S7110704, CVE-2012-0506: Issues with some method in corba
* S7112642, CVE-2012-0497: Incorrect checking for graphics rendering object
* S7118283, CVE-2012-0501: Better input parameter checking in zip file processing
* S7126960, CVE-2011-5035: Add property to limit number of request headers to the HTTP Server

We believe that this 2.1 release takes IcedTea beyond u3.  In addition to the
changes in the public OpenJDK7 repository for u2 and the security updates, which
is what we believe u3 is comprised of[*], we also include a number of additional
fixes (three already in u4):

* 7140882: Don't return booleans from methods returning pointers
  http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea7-forest/hotspot/rev/f8f4d3f9b165
  This is in the u4 tree and is a pre-requisite for building with gcc 4.7.
  It has already been released in IcedTea6 1.11.0.
* 7091528: javadoc attempts to parse .class files
  http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea7-forest/langtools/rev/58f6a950cd72
  This is in the u4 tree and is necessary for building documentation with some
  projects, such as java-gnome.  It has already been released in IcedTea6
  1.10.5, 1.9.12 and 1.8.12.
* 7103610: _NET_WM_PID and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE are not set
  http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea7-forest/jdk/rev/afdcedc27c23
  This is in the u4 tree and is necessary to make the JDK work with the panel
  in GNOME3.  It has already been released in IcedTea6 1.11.0 and IcedTea 2.0.1.
* 7049339: AnyBlit is broken with non-rectangular clips.
  http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea7-forest/jdk/rev/59225f3db8be
  Despite being marking with a high priority, this is only in OpenJDK8.  We intend
  to propose it for u4.  It fixes rendering issues with Batik and has already
  been released in IcedTea6 1.11.0.

In addition, IcedTea includes the usual IcedTea patches to allow builds against
system libraries and to support more estoric architectures.

Please note support for alternative VM solutions (CACAO, Shark, Zero) may be lacking
in this release, as there has been little development activity from the teams concerned
since the 2.0 release, while OpenJDK itself has moved on to HotSpot 22.  Patches are
welcome; please contact the mailing list (distro-pkg-dev at openjdk.java.net) and/or file
bugs (http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla) under the appropriate component.

Full details of the release can be found below.

The following people helped with these releases:

* Andrew John Hughes (import of u2, security fixes)
* Omair Majid (S7102334 backport)
* Damien Raude-Morvan (update of bootstrap build for u2)
* Xerxes Rånby (CACAO and JamVM support)

We would also like to thank the bug reporters and testers!
 
To get started:
$ tar xzf icedtea-<ver>.tar.gz
$ cd icedtea-<ver>
 
Full build requirements and instructions are in INSTALL:
$ ./configure [--with-parallel-jobs --enable-pulse-java --enable-systemtap ...]
$ make

Happy hacking!

[*] It is difficult to make authoritative statements about u3 as the release
is proprietary.  Oracle still do not provide GPL binaries based on OpenJDK.
