Hi,

Please find below a changeset for fixing
8019948: java/util/logging/bundlesearch/ResourceBundleSearchTest.java is
failing intermittently [1]

This appears to be a test bug due to a bizarre use of synchronization
in the test. The test was failing regularly before the fix (= often
enough), but I haven't managed to reproduce since I changed
lr.wait() into lr.join();

lr.join() is lr.wait() behind the scenes but with a check for isAlive(). So this suggests you have been getting spurious wakeups from lr.wait() - which is theoretically possible but extremely unlikely. If you have the cycles could you run the original code with this change:

   lr.wait();
+  if (lr.isAlive()) throw new Error("Spurious wakeup!");

Thanks,
David
