I've proposed a new package here in favor of the other alternative of
maintaining the openjdk/crac patches in our existing openjdk-17 source
package. The openjdk/crac delta is quite huge [1]. The crac changes
pervade through the Hotspot VM, the garbage collector and the standard
library. It will be hard  to maintain these patches on every quarterly
openjdk security update. OTOH, it is fairly straightforward to maintain
a different upstream repository hosting crac patches on top of the
latest JDK 17.
