Also we still seem to be looking for a javah, which means we are now reliant on its existence for a successful build. Given we bundle gjavah, couldn't we build tools first and then invoke this? This wasn't possible before, but we now rely on compilers with VM requirements anyway.
I'd prefer not to use the tools we build during the build, as that makes the build more fragile: both a bug in the VM and in our tools code could bring it down. Separating potential causes of build failure is a good thing for the poor souls who get to debug them. ;)
cheers, dalibor topic
