The section which builds the jvm.cfg seems incorrect. Rather than
omitting the -server option as promised it aliases it to -client.
Wouldn't
It never promised to omit the -server :) We alias to -client as a
pragmatic concession to testing which often adds -server explicitly.
If we didn't do that then we wouldn't be able to run hundreds of tests
without reconfiguring testsuites into client-only / server-only etc.
Yes, it took many years for "-client" and "-server" to be recognized on
all relevant platforms to provide scripting portability. We should not
regress here!
