This patch changes the configure paramater --disable-static-link-stdc++
to the following:
--with-stdc++lib=<static>,<dynamic>,<default>
* default: try static if it works but falling back on dynamic
* static: force static or fail if it doesn't work
* dynamic: force dynamic or fail if it doesn't work
This only applies to linux.
Previously configure would just emit a warning that the chosen strategy
didn't work and the other was chosen. I think that if a user actively
choses a strategy for linking, it should be an error if it can't be used.
This became a problem when trying to compile 32-bit linux binaries on a
64-bit system and trying to sort out all the library dependencies.
After applying the patch, remember to run bash
common/autoconf/autogen.sh and to also submit in jdk/make/closed when
pushing it in.
