Hi,

Please find below a patch for jdk8 for: 8017174 - NPE when using Logger.getAnonymousLogger or LogManager.getLogManager().getLogger <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dfuchs/JDK-8017174/webrev-jdk8.00/> The issue was that the lazy initialization of LoggerContext was not working correctly - leading to applets seeing a partially initialized tree where the root logger hadn't been added yet - hence the NPE - as the root logger was unexpectedly null.

This change looks reasonable and another good test (thanks). This fix is good to backport to 7u-dev after it's in jdk8

thanks Mandy
