Please take a look at the webrev at

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~weijun/8006564/webrev.00/ Bug is http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/viewbug.do?bugid=8006564 The S11N.sh test uses /java to try to access old JDKs. When the test is running at Russia, /java exists but is on the other side of the globe, and a timeout happens. This fix has created a jdk6-style class and use it to check for compatibility. Not precise but enough for this test. Thanks Max It's good to see the dependency on /java/re removed but I'm not sure that I like the -Xbootclasspath/o:old because it is too tied into the implementation.

Have you considered just put the serial versions of the older releases into a byte array and have test use that? It would of course require having a way to easily re-create the byte array (should be clear instructions).
