So what will be the best way to downport something from JDK9 to JDK8.
The only possiblity I see is again to "cherry pick"; i.e., export the
change from JDK9 and import it into JDK8. Do you see other
possibilities?
We do this all the time when bringing changes from jdk8 to jdk7u-dev. It
does mean that you get a new changeset id after the import but I don't
think that is a problem. For the AIX port then I assume that if the
changesets are imported in the right sequence that it should be easy
(assuming of course you get in early to avoid need to re-base the changes).
