Hi,
we found an error in the GF(p)-arithmetics of SunEC, while adding
support for brainpool-curves in ECDHE for TLS connections as
suggested in RFC 7027.

Thanks! I created JDK-8189594[1] to track this issue. My understanding
is that this error doesn't cause any bugs in the existing JDK code, but
it may cause bugs if we add new curves that use this optimization. If I
am wrong about this, please let me know.
