Description Andrew Haley 2016-04-25 14:48:55 UTC 
This is https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8153980

It's a nasty compiler bug introduced in jdk8u60.  It will not be fixed until 8u102
comes out. As we won't be using u102 until the October security update, we should patch it.
Comment 1 Andrew John Hughes 2016-04-25 16:22:18 UTC 
I'll take this. Backport applies fine and just needs ACKs to get into RHEL.
Comment 3 Andrew John Hughes 2016-08-15 18:22:06 UTC 
This was fixed as part of the update to u92, prior to the security update to u101 in July.
