Hi Magnus,

I find this all very confusing - we have a number of CUSTOM_* variables now and I would expect they to be closely tied together. Also unclear if TOPDIR is really the top-dir or the top of the "open" repo? If really the top then aren't TOPDIR and CUSTOM_ROOT the same ?? Or are we allowing the custom and regular parts to exist isolated in the filesystem ??

Thanks,
David

To support the use case where the OpenJDK repository is included as part of a custom project, this patch introduces the concept of a "custom root", which plays the role of $TOPDIR in some circumstances. It is the responsibility of any custom code to keep this value and propagate it where needed.
