Thanks for the reviews. Let's see how the build-dev thread [1]
progresses over the next few hours then. I don't think we'll be able to
make a decision to flip the bootstrap JDK that quickly but let's see.
I'd like to push this later today if no bootstrap decision is made. I
don't want to affect another nightly build run. This push should be
cheap and in any case - I want to revert the current use of reflection
when we do get the bootstrap version bumped.
regards,
Sean.

I'd suggest holding off a bit until there is a conclusion on the
build-dev list (Folks using 7u7 will need to update anyway, if not
today then maybe very soon).

The CORBA build issue continues. I was incorrectly using 7u40 as the
bootstrap JDK. 7u7 is still the version that RE uses and that causes
an issue since sun.misc.JavaAWTAccess wasn't introduced until 7u9.
The fix proposed is short term. There's a discussion underway on
build-dev to bump the JDK bootstrap version to JDK 8 for JDK 9 builds.
Build and tests are good. I've used 7u7 this time for bootstrap!
