Ya, I am aware of that. Sounded like you had some specific things in mind.

I wouldn't say that sun.nio.ch is "commonly-used" functionality among Java developers.

But yeah, nailing down the sun stuff has made it a long and difficult road for some.

Java runtime 11.0.23 introduced a real bug as far as I can tell. JDK-8220818 bugfix fixed too much. Now completely correct keyrefs give exceptions. We had to revert to 11.0.22 to fix this.
