Thanks for taking a look.

I could reproduce it fairly easily on macosx.
On linux-x64 out of 30+ runs, I've seen it passed (CDS dump finished 
sucessfully) once. That's why I've added checking exitValue of 0.

Yes, this one reproduces with small metaspace size in CDS mode not 
involving Graal.
This test should be very reliable or we will see failure in hs-tier1 
testing.
The change is for adjusting the expected output because CDS dump will 
fail earlier upon OOM.
