Confidential - Oracle Restricted \Including External Recipients Hi Matthias -
I did https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8264593 which "promoted" the debug utils into product builds, and made them available on Windows. So I'm in favour of them existing, and being available! Yes maybe they need better names if the short debug utils have clashed with something else in the past, maybe it was a clash with some native test. Maybe JVM_dbg_pp, JVM_dbg_blob, etc..? (We already have dbg_is_safe). I don't see it spelled out exactly what the clash was.
