In any case, you were right to propose adding the test to the exclude
list. I see Naoto questions "generic-all" and that is a good topic to
discuss. In this case the issue seems to be specific to C2 on x86 but
that is too fine grained for the platform matching that jtreg supports.
As I understand it, jtreg can only exclude tests that match the
operating system name and architecture. For such cases I would tend to
just add the test with "generic-all", otherwise you are into multi-lines
excludes trying to exclude everywhere except sparc in this case.
I questioned this because of the following comment line in ProblemList.txt
# More than one label is allowed but must be on the same line.
Which suggests that we could express the line like,
java/text/Bidi/Bug6665028.java solaris-all linux-all
But I could not find any detail about the syntax other than the above
comment line for multiple labels, and there is no precedent in the
actual list, I am not sure we could do this. In that case, I am fine
with "generic-all"
