Is there any documentation of the build architecture, in terms of
what needs to be built first, and how those build products are then
used to build the rest of the system?
Sorry if these are FAQ-type questions, I'm still trying to figure out
how this all works.
Is the requirement for an e
I suspect (a long time ago) they did it this way for a reason, and
in fact as I think about it, they probably wanted the version baked
into a string constant rather than reading it from a file at startup,
for performance reasons. That concern may still exist.

Would also be nice to not name the version-controlled input files *.java
when they are not in fact valid Java source. I am referring to the output of

Java (BOOTJDK) is and will always be a requirement to build the JDK,

Many build tools are already written in Java (see jdk/make/tools)
so I don't see how changing sh scripts to Java changes the build
dependencies.
As far as Ant goes, I have mixed feelings about it

I hear the license terms mean people can't

As far as I know, only Ubuntu (and only 8.04?) depends on bash.
No other OS seems to have a problem using plain old antique sh.

Ideally, these sh scripts used in the build process should be changed
to be something else, maybe small Java apps. Someday.

sh is a horrible programming language whose primary virtue is
portability -- every Unix system since the dark ages has it.
Much of that is lost when replacing #!/bin/sh with #!/bin/bash.
Might as well upgrade to a "real" programming language.

This looks like that sh vs. bash issue.
