The source changes look ok to me, but I can't imagine that anyone would run into this under normal circumstances.

Quite trivially, I don't think the test needs to be run under othervm, especially with a fixed JDK.

Hello! SequenceInputStream#read functions are implemented recursively. This may cause stack overflow in some extreme cases with lots of empty substreams. Would you please help review the fix?
