Hi! I am resending this as a phase 2 request for inclusion into 7u60.
This is a critical issue impacting multiple users and is an extremely low-risk change. I have tested jdk7 builds with this fix against our reproducer and all of the standard (default jprt) tests indicate no issues. This change has already passed review for inclusion into 5 / 6 / 9.

Hi! This is a request to backport the flowing fix to JDK7. [ JDK-6571600 JNI use results in UnsatisfiedLinkError looking for libmawt.so ] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-657160 The root cause of this issue is a name conflict with JNI_OnLoad provided by awt_LoadLibrary.c and code loaded manually by the user (usually their own JNI libraries). The fix is to use a different name for calling dladdr that is much less likely to conflict with any names used by customer code. The fix is exactly the same in JDK7 as it is in both JDK8 and JDK9. I have of course tested the fix on JDK7 as well. The JDK9 fix can be found here: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/client/jdk/rev/35dfaa9954c2 As the forest for JDK8u-dev is not up yet, I am submitting individual requests to backport to both JDK8 and JDK7 in parallel.
