Description

This is a follow-up to bug 4616656, which requires the VM to support
certain 64-bit unsafe operations, based on a request by Oracle.

4616656 3/1 Need a more portable way to unsafely access fields in JDk 1.4

In order to complete this work, a new backward compatible version of
Unsafe.java needs to be checked into the SDK.  No other code changes are
required.  See the sample version of Unsafe.java in the hotspot workspace,
subdirectory "doc", after the fix for 4616656 is promoted.
