Bug#907541: [openjdk-8] Bind to a multicast address fails
Hi Andre,

thanks for this information bundle, it helps tremendously.

As far as I understand, the original patch indeed introduced issues,
so it’s probably not something we want to have in 8 and 11. The fix
in 13+ is not backportable because they basically rewrote the entire
socket classes’ implementations.
I guess this won’t be fixed in 8 and, more importantly, 11 currently.
