Strictly, Peter's advice is out of date. I back-ported all the relevant
code we first implemented in JDK8 last year. So we have had a fully
equivalent JDK7 implementation as of mid-December 2014. So, if you
really want a fully functional and optimized JDK7 you can at the very
least build and install one from the sources in the IcedTea2.5 mercurial
repo on icedtea.classpath.org.

I am afraid that I am not sure about the status and availability of
rpms/tarballs of releases of JDK7 for current versions of RHEL/Fedora.
Deepak Bhole (Java team manager in cc-list) is better placed to answer
questions about distribution issues.

That said, Peter is right to suggest that we are very keen to receive
bug reports for any failings observed in the JDK8 release. Please report
the issue and provide us with a reproducer. We will do our very best to
fix it as soon as we can.

regards,
