As of March 18, this no longer works.
make dist-clean
hg update -d "<2014-03-18"
sh configure --with-boot-jdk=$JAVA8_HOME

I appreciate the effort to get clang to work, but I should still be able to
pick my compiler using --with-tools-dir.
Should I report a bug?
(Note on my motivation: I'm getting build errors due to -Wformat-nonliteral.
I've heard this is a known issue, but I'd like to be able to work around it in
the mean time.)
