Fix Request (JDK8u) Request for a JDK8u-friendly version of this changeset to be backported to JDK8u as part of a set of changes to prevent an OOM being thrown during a -XX:-UseCompressedOops run (See JDK-8263099). https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~phh/8075071/webrev.8u.jdk.03/ The only modification made to the changeset was switching /../../test/lib for /lib, as per JDK-8140189. Otherwise this test wouldn't work after this change.

Problem is that -XX:MaxRAMFraction= may shrink MaxHeapSize down to -Xms specified value, despite default ergonomics-driven MaxHeapSize of -UseCompressedOops. Test will pass with -Xmx770m on -XX:-UseCompressedOops. posted for review: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2015-March/032316.html
