When we had the legacy interruptible I/O on Solaris then it would cause
problems for class loading, particularly with developer builds (no
images) where the class files are loaded individually. To avoid this
when we had to put this VM option on several tests. I removed a bunch of
them in JDK 8, just didn't do them all. I can sort out this today.
