Please review the fix at

  http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~weijun/8029995/webrev.00/

The supported boolean values in this fix cover what MIT krb5 does and we also 
added 'f'.

The old getBooleanValue() method returns true for “true” and false otherwise 
but the new method returns null if the value is not supported. I’ve carefully 
changed how the method is called to ensure maximum compatibility, but there is 
still one left:

We support DNS lookup for realm name by default, which means we do it if 
dns_lookup_realm is not set to false, or when unset, if dns_fallback is not set 
to false. Before this change, when dns_lookup_realm is set to “unknown”, it 
means false so DNS lookup is not performed. After this change, it’s equivalent 
to dns_lookup_realm unset, and dns_fallback is used. I think the current 
behavior is better than the old one.

Thanks
Max
