Can a committer please look at committing my patch to stop this
test from running with jdk131/ibm131 until someone cares to look at
this otherwise (or we no longer support jdk131, or we collectively
decide not to fix this).
I'll be glad to disable the test for jdk131, but this looks like a
bug to me. Just looking at the test behavior on the different vms, it
seems like we delegate to a method in the java class libraries that
either fails to parse the string (and we catch this properly) or
returns the correct value, and in this one case the class library
throws an exception which we don't catch, but possibly could
(should?) It's interesting that j9 returns the expected error in this
case.
Dan, any opinion? It seems like we should be catching this, but if
you don't think it's worth chasing down, I can disable the test.
