Might be useful to pass that on to the 8u developers.
I won’t be doing anything with it and the ELTS people
are mostly interested in comparing test results against
the previous upload’s, to see that nothing broke too badly.
If upstream makes their tests jtreg6 compatible all the better.

No, we’re targetting jessie and stretch with openjdk-8 mostly,
which lacks jtreg 5 and where the backported jtreg6 really
helps, without, we had to disable the tests entirely.
