A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
One of our customers is seeing another occurrence of the bug we reported in 

http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=JDK-8178047

As a HotSpot JIT error this problem is occuring non-deterministically, and this customer is having great difficulty working around the problem.

I am raising this bug to request that JDK-8178047 be back-ported to Java 8. It was fixed in Java 9. and the commentary (presumably from one of the developers) stated 'We should consider to backport it.', but at time of writing the fix is only present in 'Fixed Versions: 9 (b167)'

I apologise if this is the wrong channel to make this request - I have no permissions to add a comment to the original bug report.

This problem continues to cause significant impact to both our end customers and our support staff - I hope you will consider this request favourably.
