While looking at JDK-8173375 I found that `make` does not create the directory

failed build. I couldn’t find reference to this in build-dev archives so maybe 
a new bug?

I'm not sure why you think this is the case. In make/InitSupport.gmk, we have: 

  define PrepareFailureLogs
        $(RM) -r $(MAKESUPPORT_OUTPUTDIR)/failure-logs 2> /dev/null && \
        $(MKDIR) -p $(MAKESUPPORT_OUTPUTDIR)/failure-logs
  endef
Unless rm is returning a non-0 exit code, that should work perfectly well. I've never seen it fail. Can you reproduce this problem?
