I saw in https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8217581 that
“ (The page for JDK 9 does list correct values.) ” and I was like,
hey, I’ve seen it on my system too!

Turns out that yes.

This is a bug, mismatching documentation that does not document

Hi there!

As a Java developer, I'm very much interested in having this bug
fixed. It has already caused me to give wrong information to other
people... :/ For example: the java(1) man page lists the option
`-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemory`, but this option has been renamed to
`-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError` in Java 11.

Is this a Debian packaging problem or does upstream provide the wrong
documentation?

Let me know if I can help fix this, I know Debian packaging a bit.

Cheers,
  Etienne

Thank you for the fast answer Matthias. :)
Would https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8225134 be the
corresponding upstream issue? Is there any hope this could be fixed in a
future OpenJDK 11 release?

That's the issue for 13, not 11.

I'd happily file an upstream bug to prod them, but I can't get the form
at https://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/start_form.do to work... :(

I managed to report this bug to Oracle, so it might increase the
chances of someone eventually fixing it. :)
