One the offchance there is some low hanging fruit (obvious problems) it
probably makes sense to avoid pushing then backing out in 7. Presuming
nobody starts throwing stuff at me in the mean time, I'm happy to wait a
couple of weeks.

7u60 is quite a ways out, is it ok to bake in 7u-dev?

I'm conflicted.
It seems that quite a few Mac developers are running into this problem. The
fact that this code has been effectively transplanted from Apple's JDK gives me
a high degree of confidence in the fix. (it has already had plenty of bake time
in JDK6) Now that I think about it though, waiting a couple of weeks won't stop
us getting into 7u60 so I guess its no harm.
I'll revisit this in a fortnight as suggested.

Rob - what you would think about giving this a few weeks of bake time in
8 before pushing it to jdk7u-dev? I realize it is tempting to get it
pushed now while the patch is fresh (and maybe that is okay), it's just
that all changes in this area have had a history of change behavior in
subtle ways and these take time to surface.
