As it used to be a one liner, it didn't seem worth the effort to move it to a more suitable location, but when expanding it with a --with flag I think we should also move this to jdk-version.m4, which is the only place where it's currently used. I think it makes sense to treat this as part of the version variables as that's what it's used for. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6542
