        JDK-8073706 changes (multithreaded deoptimizing compilation livelock prevention) are causing spurious failures in the Hudson build, in the test for JDK-8046026, which was testing correctness of the multithreaded deoptimizing compilation. Apparently, the heuristic that eliminates the livelock now reveals a race condition. Until the issue is understood, we should revert JDK-8073706.
