Description
The default implementation of `java.util.logging.Handler.isLoggable` has been updated to match its specification and to return `false` if the `record` parameter is `null`.  The implementation of `java.util.logging.MemoryHandler.isLoggable` and `java.util.logging.MemoryHandler.publish` will no longer throw `NullPointerException` if the `record` parameter is `null`, which conforms to their specification.
