java/net/DatagramSocket/DatagramSocketMulticasting.java fails infrequently

The probable cause is that the network interface is being reconfigured while the test is running.

The line that fails is:

assertTrue(s.getOption(IP_MULTICAST_IF).equals(ni));

Comparing two instances of NetworkInterface for equality is problematic because NetworkInterface::equals also compare the addresses bound to the network interface, and each instance of NetworkInterface has a snapshot of the addresses taken at the time the instance is created.

The test should be improved to only compare NetworkInterface name/index.
