A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Is there any chance that the fix for JDK-8145981 (http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8145981) will be back-ported to Java 8?

I've observed bug JDK-8145981 in my CI environment and the code I've written will shortly be shipping into production for customers running Java 8. In my opinion, this bug severely affects the reliability and usability of LinuxWatchService, and a fix in Java 8 would be very valuable to users. Thanks!
