All dlls in the jdk build should be using /SAFESEH  is there some reason that this dll does not?

Deferring to hs25 as this is a low priority issue.

EVALUATION The SA_LFLAGS variable in make/windows/makefiles/sa.make needs to updated with something like: !if "$(COMPILER_NAME)" == "VS2010" SL_LFLAGS = $(SA_LFLAGS) /SAFESEH !endif
