Hello,
I'm trying to build jdk8 on Mac, cannot get past the configuration step.

Are you trying to build OpenJDK or Oracle JDK? There are a number of differences in the build requirements and processes. If the closed repos are found you will default to Oracle JDK, else OpenJDK.

First configure asked for X11, which I believe is not needed on Mac. I worked 
around with --x-libraries. Then it stumbled upon freetype, which it should not 
need either. I added --with-freetype, but it failed to recognise .dylib as the 
library suffix:

configure: error: Could not find libfreetype.so nor freetype.dll in 
/opt/local/lib

Any advice?
Thanks!
