Hi all,

On April 10 a change was committed to jdk8u that I'd like to see backported to 
jdk7u.  The change set is a large one: 
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u-dev/jdk/rev/ea62ea52af27.  I don't know 
anything about the background of the change.  The checkin comment just says 
"Merge."  I don't know where it was merged from but it seems to be a bundle of 
unrelated changes.

The substance of the change to sun.security.ssl.ClientHandshaker is to make the 
triple handshake fix check all subject alternate names of types "IP address" 
and "DNS" and not just the first of each.  The current behavior, introduced in 
in 1.7.0_71 I think, is unnecessarily restrictive.  I believe the change is 
just a single file.

Thanks


John Gregg
