java/awt/font/DefaultFontTest/DefaultFontTest.java fails in SunFontManager.findFont2D

The jtreg test java/awt/font/DefaultFontTest/DefaultFontTest.java fails on one of our RedHat 7.1 machines with :

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "String.toLowerCase(java.util.Locale)" because "name" is null

Looks like name.toLowerCase(Locale.ENGLISH); is called on a name null, this should be checked.
