Several java classes in java.base is generated from templates using SPP, the "Stream Preprocessor". Unfortunately much of this code is very old and has survived unchanged since pre-JDK 7. It does not follow modern makefile standards for abstraction, safe coding practices, etc. In short, they have been a thorn in the side for a long time, and the time has finally come to clean them up.
