Please include a comment explaining the > rationale with a link the bug you just filed with upstream. I just finished a build with gcc 5.5.0 (from 8.1) and it built fine with the patch. I noticed I had for some reason that I did not remember disabled gcc7 for openjdk8; that may have been due to the same issue.

Yes, I can try to have a look at it. I don't guarantee anthing. I already ranted (I'm pretty sure) how java's build process is much more complicated than it should be (there is no good reason why a bytecode compiler should need a machine dependent bootstrap kit). There seem to be some more candidates for splitting out in openjdk-jdk11u-jdk-11.0.5-10-1/src/java.desktop/share/native; at least libfreetype and liblcms. -Olaf. -- Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert -- rhialto at falu dot nl ___ Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on \X/ no account be allowed to do the job. --Douglas Adams, "THGTTG"
