Description
TESTFAIL:java/rmi/registry/reexport/Reexport.java
(To fix the bug, need to build a mechanism to start the rmiregistry on an ephemeral port in a new jvm and get the port.)


Starting registry on port 49382
JAVAVM: command = [/scratch/export/home/aurora/sandbox_keepme/jdk/bin/java, -ea, -esa, -Xmx512m, RegistryRunner, 49382]
Creating duplicate registry, this should fail...

Comments
Root cause: running registry on TestLibrary.getUnusedRandomPort() will cause "port in use" exception, as there is a time window for a interloper to occupy the "free" port. Solution: in RegistryRunner print out the port running registry, add a class REGISTRY to control and monitor the registry sub-process, and get the running port.

For java/rmi/registry/reexport/Reexport.java, there are 2 kinds of issues: 1. failed at Reexport.makeRegistry(regPort); (at line 64), which will cause failure of starting a registry, then subsequent codes fail. 2. failed at reg = createReg(false, regPort); (at line 85), which will cause failure of starting a registry, then subsequent codes fail. For java/rmi/registry/interfaceHash/InterfaceHash.java, there is no valid log existing.

Added java/rmi/registry/interfaceHash/InterfaceHash.java which has been observed to fail with "Port already in use." The likely problem for all of these is the open-close-reopen race condition.
