https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8030059
The bug was originally filed against 7u40 but turned out that we have the same problem in 8 so we pushed to 8 first: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8029366 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/hotspot/rev/b87211e33ebb This is the request to backport to 7u60. The review (plus the patch) for the 8 push is here: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-compiler-dev/2013-December/012817.html
