The change to look for the alternate library name looks good to me. I'm
happy to see this handled in this way.
I can't comment on whether there are any other cases where the alternate
name should be considered.

JDK 8 fix for this issue. For readers not familiar with Mac OS, this is to

The preferred native library file suffix is .dylib on Mac, but some
legacy libraries
use the suffix .jnilib. Currently openjdk on mac does not recognise the
.jnilib suffix.
This change is to restore that behavior

If this change is accepted, we will look for approval to make the same
change in 7u4.
Thanks,
Michael.
