Thank you !

I have found this issue which seems cover 17 as well https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8283491, if you can confirm please?
if this has already fixed in 17.0.4 then we are good or else I will approach within IBM to contribute in 17.


Many Thanks & Regards

Hi,

For jdk17, feel free to backport it!  IBM also has contributors to OpenJDK,
e.g. Tyler Steele <Tyler.Steele at ibm.com>

Best regards,
  Goetz.
