Kevin - looks good in general with a few remarks (see below):
I'd like to request review of this backport from 9 to 8u:
8038340: Cleanup and fix sysroot and devkit handling on Linux and Solaris
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8038340
9 changesets:
base repo: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/dev/rev/9786ef8ca58c
JDK: repo: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/rev/fdeb6a8b0f3a
(clean import to jdk8u-dev)
JDK repo change imports cleanly. base repo changes require some manual
fixups in:
common/autoconf/basics.m4 addition of
AC_DEFUN_ONCE([BASIC_SETUP_DEVKIT], fails, done manually
common/autoconf/toolchain.m4 minor change
didn't import
make/common/NativeCompilation.gmk minor change didn't import
...plus run autogen to recreate generated files.
9 review thread:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2014-April/004361.html
(thread starts in March, not that it's long, but I don't see a link
there to the previous emails in the thread:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2014-March/004333.html )

Many thanks!

common/autoconf/configure.ac
This change looks straightforward, but I don't see the file at all in
the JDK 9 webrev...
make/common/autoconf/configure.acdevkit/Makefile
lines 91,92 ... Do you want ccache? It is commented out in the JDK 9
changes
