Webrevs: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/openjdk7/8151841/hotspot/ http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/openjdk7/8151841/jdk/ Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8151841
The OpenJDK build needs some additional flags for building with GCC 6. These have been added in OpenJDK 9 [0] and have been proposed for OpenJDK 8u [1]. The 7 webrev has the same end result, but is different in content due to the different build systems. The 7 version is much simpler because there is no ability to check for the support of flags without autoconf. So, we add -std=gnu++98 to all invocations of the C++ compiler, and -fno-lifetime-dse and -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks if running on GCC >= 6. Let me know if this is ok to push.
