The fix looks reasonable although I am surprised such an issue has existed for 
what I suppose is a long time.
One nit about the test regarding the requires.
It can't require solaris because there is no solaris support in JDK 16.
So unless you think this test will fail on other platforms (I hope not) it may 
be best to just remove this line.
