Reviving an old thread...
Since CR 7110017 ( the VM part of this change ) has been in hsx for a
few promoted builds now, I would like to proceed with the jdk part of
these changes.
You guys already reviewed this, and the changes are the still the same.
I just want to give you the heads up as I would like to push the changes
to jdk8/awt/jdk soon. I just need to do fresh builds and testing.

Hi,
CR 7110002 proposes to rename the unix version of the awt toolkit
libraries to allow them reside in the same directory as libawt.
xawt/libmawt.so -> libawt_xawt.so
headless/libmawt.so -> libawt_headless.so
The proposed new library names are prefixed with 'libawt' since they are
subcomponents of libawt and this will make them more easily recognizably
as such. But this is not necessarily a requirement, just that they are
unique and can be colocated with libawt.
This CR is part of the modularity effort. A future requirement of the
jigsaw prototype is to treat native JDK implementation libraries as it
would any user module installed in a module library. That is, native
libraries should reside within the lib directory of the installed
module. In the module library then AWT's libraries might be located in
somewhere like modules/sun.desktop/8.0/lib.
