From the associated OpenJDK bug it looks like this was fixed in 8 b56, which as far as I can tell means prerelease versions of Java 8, which would mean it's fixed in stable Java 8. Thoughts on including something about "old JVMs like OpenJDK 7 or earlier"?

xloem commented 9 years ago

I do not have the issue after upgrading:

$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_79"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.5) (Gentoo package icedtea-7.2.5.5)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.79-b02, mixed mode)

That is, it's working for me in a later release of Java 7.

Well that's confusing. I'm glad it's working, but I'm unclear on what versions it's fixed in. Did Gentoo backport the fix to Java 7?

xloem commented 9 years ago

I looked into it and found that IcedTea backported the fix in 2.5.3 .

Merged, thanks!
