I think we are in agreement that the pad fields can safely be removed from the serial form. No problem. To remain compatible with the TLR implementation in jdk7, and to have a reconstituted TLR behave reasonably, we need to continue to write a sensible value for rnd. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/8006409/webrev.00/webrev/ If I can get agreement on this simple change, I'll finalize the "spec" change, with respect to the serial form of TLR, and hopefully we can put this one to bed.

Good for me.
