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.
