checked_jni_DeleteWeakGlobalRef just calls the unchecked version, unlike the checked versions of DeleteGlobalRef and DeleteLocalRef, which do some verification of the argument handle. The weak case should be handled similarly.

Fix request (13u):
The original patch applies cleanly, tested with tier1 (with and without -Xcheck:jni)

Fix Request (11u)
I would like to backport this to 11u, to have more validation for JNI code. Patch applies cleanly to 11u, passes tier1, tier2, tier3 suites, all with and without -Xcheck:jni (there some unrelated failures addressed by other backports).
