Erik:
Unfortunately the change for bug JDK-8013480 broke the build on Solaris:
Configure no longer looks for cc and CC instead of gcc and g++ on
solaris. This is caused by use of the macro AC_COMPILE_IFELSE in
platform.m4, before the compilers have been initialized. We have
implemented our platform dependent initialization of the compilers in
toolchain.m4, which is executed after platform.m4. The macro
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE runs AC_PROG_CC implicitly and sets CC to gcc, which
is the default. Once done, AC_PROG_CC cannot be run again and so we
get stuck with that value.
This patch moves these checks to toolchain.m4, after the compilers
have been initialized. I'm currently running a jprt job verifying that
this indeed works on all platforms.

Looks good. Thanks, Erik
