Just a quick point, I think very few (possibly almost no-one) uses the
script match functor in the filtering engine. Scripts are used in the
resolver much more often. So could be some bug specific to the use of the
script engine in the filter.

But I, again, wouldn't use OpenJDK if you paid me, so I would definitely
reproduce it on Oracle's first to rule it out.
