If the TCK fails with modern library versions, that is a problem with
the TCK or with OpenJDK and needs to be fixed.  Fedora should not ship
outdated libraries because an upstream test suite is too restrictive.

The main problem here is that the TCK is closed-source.  If it were
open to contributions, problems like this could be identified and
fixed.  Given the current situation, though, the best solution would
be for Red Hat to create an alternate test suite that is free software.
