Adding core-libs as this is actually a launcher change.

Hello, AWT Team. Please review the fix for the issue: http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8009911 The webrev is available at: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pchelko/8009911/webrev.00/ The problem: When launching java with -XstatrOnFirstThread we were using dispatch_sync to start a Java main on the main thread. This blocked the main dispatch queue, so all the subsequent calls to GCD were never invoked. GCD is used a bit in our code, but it is used inside Cocoa, for example for fullscreen. The solution: We now launch Java main using a performSelectorOnMaintThread, so we do not block GCD. Notes: 1. This also fixes the following SWT bug: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=388886 2. Although I have added OBJC syntax into java_md_macosx.c file, I did not rename it to .m, because: a. It is hard to update an old build system to compile with the new file name. b. It is already compiled with -x objective-c, so I will compile c. We would have lost all the hg history for this file. With best regards. Petr.
