Comments
Fix request 11u: This patch reenables some tests on Windows which had to be disabled due to a compiler change during JDK11 development. Now the test requirements have been recompiled with the newer compiler, too, and we can reenable the tests. Patch applies cleanly with the exception of removing the problem list entry for test/jdk/sun/security/tools/keytool/NssTest.java as that test doesn't exist in 11u. Regression tests pass with the additional tests. This changelist is a predecessor of JDK-8225390 which problemlists a shaky test and shall be backported as well. Requesting jdk11u-critical because the test failure of JDK-8225390 is observed in 11.0.5 as well.

These tests will use NSS 3.41

Please do not consider fixing this by adding another round of these binaries to the source repository. Keeping binary files in the repository is very inefficient and adds a lot of size to the repository history, which we all have to carry around when we clone the source. You have to understand that every version of these files that you ever added are carried in the history forever. We have a mechanism for providing the binaries dynamically at test time from a binary storage (Artifactory), please use it. Christian already has a working patch.

Now that JDK-8203795 has upgraded the default compiler on Windows to VS2017, these libs should be re-built by VS2017 as well.
