In JDK-8359830 we had to update the JDK to correctly report the "os.version" of macos 26 operating system. This was necessary because when testing the JDK against some very early 26.0 Beta releases, the version reported by macos was 16 when using XCode 15.4 to build the JDK.

A few more Beta releases later, Apple addressed that issue and macos 26.x consistently started reporting 26 as the operating system version, even when building the JDK with XCode 15.4. As a result, the fix we had done in JDK-8359830 is no longer necessary.
