changes for 7082769 fix have led to behavioral changes which can lead to native file descriptor exhaustion. Basically - file descriptors are not released until all streams referencing them are closed.
For the short term, we should backout the 7082769 changes until a full solution which doesn't cause issue in terms of compatibility is found.
I'm hoping to get this change into 7u2. webrev : http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~coffeys/webrev.7101658/ regards, Sean.
