I think you meant that you created JDK-8028623, but yes, go ahead and close this one.

I just created 8023105 to describe this issue, didn't realise that there was already a Java bug open. I would like to close this as a duplicate of that as I've made more notes there.

7u40-defer-request justification: Unfortunately too late for 7u40, will look at this for 7u60.
