See the message thread on build-infra with subject "Problems with non
Oracle boot JDKs and class file version 52"
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-infra-dev/2012-December/002601.html
The issue appears if the bootstrap VM uses a class file version older
than what the current build is generating.
In this particular case, the bootclasspath needs to be supplied to javac
and not the java running javac. Changing the order of the arguments to
be after the javac .jar means javac will process them.

I don't understand the change.
What is in JAVAC_JARS that changing it's position on the command line makes any
difference?
