I am a bit surprised to note we'd prefer 2012 over 2010.
.. and that we'd been preferring it over 2013. Seems odd to have a version
that was never the 'official' compiler be preferred over offical versions.
It won't affect me as I don't have 2012 but might affect someone else.
So if someone has just 2010 and 2012 installed, can I assume the build
is 'known to work' ?
Other than that question, "+1".

Hello,
Please review this change which will make the official switch of the
preferred compiler toolchain on Windows for JDK 9.
Changes are needed in:
* configure, for changing the default when multiple versions are
available
* jprt.properties, for picking the right type of machine for Oracle
internal building
* README-builds.html to make the documentation a little more correct
in reflecting the current state of the build requirements
Note that README-builds certainly needs a lot more love, but this is
not the time for correcting the rest of the mess. I'm only updating
the numbers so that it's no longer blatantly wrong.
