Hi,
9+119 changed java.util.regex to initialize java.lang.invoke early,
causing a number of easily reproducible startup regressions.
This patch uses the fact that we already maintain the version string
constituents during build time to simplify creation of the
java.lang.Runtime.version().
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~redestad/8160000/webrev.3/
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8160000
Since getting Runtime.version() now does not have to touch
java.util.regex classes we end up slightly ahead of previous builds for
applications which does not use regular expressions.
Thanks!
