I have one concern
It sounds like the option is new in gcc 4.4 :
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/porting_to.html
I am not sure you can assume that since ..
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/raw-file/tip/README-builds.html#gcc
" The GNU gcc compiler version should be 4.3 or newer."
And I suggest a push to 2d-dev since its in the 2d code we get
a warning and the "build" change is in 2D build files, specifically to work
around that warning .. its really precious little to do with the build
system.

Ok for jdk8? If so, can I have a bug ID for this please?
Thanks,
Thanks for the bug ID, Phil.
Here's the revised webrev:

Sorry for the delay. I found when trying to build the build tree
that HotSpot had regressed and become unbuildable:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2012-May/005945.html
All patched now. Is build the preferred tree to push this too,
or would you prefer somewhere else?
Thanks,
