java.text.DecimalFormat.parse(String text, ParsePosition pp) incorrectly parses
Long.MIN_VALUE if multiplier is set to 2, 4, 8, 16 etc. It should return
negative values.
 
Here is the test demonstrating the bug:

-----------------TestM.java------------------------
import java.text.*;

public class TestM {
    public static void main (String args[]){
        boolean passed = true;
        DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat();
        String str = Long.toString(Long.MIN_VALUE);
        for (int m = 1; m <= 100; m++) {
          df.setMultiplier(m);
          long n = ((Long) df.parse(str, new ParsePosition(0))).longValue();
          if (n > 0) {
            System.out.println("------------------------------------");
            System.out.println(" multiplier = " + df.getMultiplier());
            System.out.println(" text: " + str);
            System.out.println(" parsed: " + n);
            passed = false;
          }
       }
       if (passed) System.out.println("Test passed");
       else System.out.println("Test failed");
    }
}
