This is the fix for the deadlock problem in SunGraphicsEnvironment/FontManager backported to OpenJDK6. It is slightly different from the OpenJDK7 version due to the restructured font manager, but the basic idea is the same: instead of sync'ing on 2 different lock objects (with the potential of entering the monitors in the wrong order) we only sync on one (the FontManager class in this case, was the FontManager instance in JDK7).
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rkennke/6892485/webrev.02/ Ok to push? Also, is there any additional stuff that needs to be done for pushing to OpenJDK6, I never did that and I see that there are not team repositories. When I have 2 ok's, should I push directly to the jdk6/jdk6-gate/jdk repository? Thanks, Roman
