I'm not very familiar with IcedTea but I cloned the repository to see
what these patches are about. Here are a few comments:
icedtea-6728542-epoll.patch seems to be a change-set I pushed to jdk7
last year. It seems very reasonable to push this into jdk6/jdk6/jdk. Go
for it!
icedtea-bytebuffer-compact.patch - this looks to be a partial fix to
6593946. If so, 6593946 is already in jdk6/jdk6/jdk
(http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/jdk/rev/3e7bfcdcf96f).
icedtea-io_util-overflow.patch - this looks like the initial fix for
6788196. Martin has already pushed this to jdk6/jdk7/jdk
(http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/jdk/rev/cc4d93e8ae7d).
icedtea-jvmtiEnv.patch - I thought JvmtiEnv::GetLineNumberTable already
handled this case so I'm curious why this one is needed.
icedtea-network-unreachable.patch - I'm pretty sure net-dev would be
open to this because it looks to be cases where the specific exceptions
aren't thrown in the timed read case.
icedtea-sunsrc.patch - I'm not sure what this is about but it looks like
it removes the service configuration files. Does JDI still work?
icedtea-testenv.patch - the changes to
test/sun/net/InetAddress/nameservice/dns/cname.sh seems reasonable
(pilot error is why this one was missed when the other tests were updated).
icedtea-jtreg-hatrun.patch - I suspect this is 6545295. We should just
fix this test (serviceability-dev).

PS: I'm not on distro-pkg-dev so this mail might need the moderator to
approve.
