EVALUATION atoi does not set errno on failure. The code checks for errno after atoi call. refer to "suggested fix" for details.

SUGGESTED FIX (Thanks to Alan who suggested this fix) File: $HOTSPOT/src/share/vm/services/attachListener.cpp Function: set_bool_flag After atoi function call, errno is checked for possible error condition. But, the atoi function don't set errno if the conversion fails (and it doesn't clear it either). If errno check is avoided, this failure will go away.
