Guys, per the JRL, the patches must have a readme for the JDK patches, unless I misunderstand (see below). I'm only guessing that committing a readme file to SVN would make the scripts sick. Any suggestions? BTW, the reference is in Section IV, ?Subsection? A as show below.

A.    License and Copyright Notices. You must include a copy of this
Java Research License in a Readme file for any Technology or
Modifications you distribute. You must also include the following
statement, "Use and distribution of this technology is subject to the
Java Research License included herein", (a) once prominently in the
source code tree and/or specifications for Your source code
distributions, and (b) once in the same file as Your copyright or
proprietary notices for Your binary code distributions. You must cause
any files containing Your Modification to carry prominent notice
stating that You changed the files. You must not remove or alter any
copyright or other proprietary notices in the Technology.

A full readme (with license) is on anduin with the BLFS patches.
