Really interesting, sounds someone of Sun takes an eye on Harmony :)
And we may apply this fix to java6 branch as well (I've done something
but not finished completely yet!)
I look forward to seeing it. If you want help post what you did to a
JIRA and mark it as experimental then we can see what is left to do.
BTW, IIRC, Open JDK uses GPLv2 with classpath exception[1], but GPLv2
is not compatible with APL2(but GPLv3 does), so TreeMap implementation
can not be apply to OpenJDK yet (though possible to apply to RI)?

It's not just GPLv2 + Classpath exception, you missed another exception
that Sun applied to the code:
The Assembly Exception
(http://openjdk.java.net/legal/assembly-exception.html)
where Sun's definition of a Designated Exception Module
(http://openjdk.java.net/legal/exception-modules-2007-05-08.html)
includes code they take in under other open source licenses (see
paragraph 4).
This is not your father's GPLv2.
