> With -Xcheck:jni, the method java.net.NetworkInterface.getAll very

> this happens depends upon the number of network interfaces (in state "UP")
> visible to Java. On Linux, with current Trunk, 2 network interfaces is
> sufficient to breach:

> 1 interfaces

Jonathan Dowland has updated the pull request incrementally with two additional
commits since the last revision:
- Correct test invocation metadata
-Xcheck:jni prior to the main class declaration; /othervm suffix now
that we are specifying JVM options. I now see the local ref warnings
in the jtreg output (JTwork, not JTreport).
Thanks Chris Hegarty.
- windows/NetworkInterface: move deletions next to last-use
Similar to review comment for the unix code. Also ensure ia2Obj is
only cleaned up if it was definitely allocated. Thanks Chris Hegarty.
