I'm sorry for the mix-up.  Andrew and I discussed this further
offline (sorry, this did not happen in public, but neither was it
intentionally private).

We reached the conclusion (I believe) that it would be best to
wait and hear from Mark about plans referred to in email archive
link below.  Mark, do you have any comment here?  Would it be
for the best to revert here and apply instead to 7 forest?

Also, I've backported this changeset to icedtea6, and it should
also probably go somehow to 8.  Can someone refresh me, as a
rather seldom-contributor here, what the correct repos are for
these?

Thanks!
