My CI builds multiple variants, but in their own separate configurations: https://builds.shipilev.net/openjdk-jdk/configure-logs/ As long as --with-jvm-variants=... accepts a single variant, I am good. It is probably --with-jvm-variant=... then, a minor nuisance to fix in build configs. -- Thanks, -Aleksey
