   Yeah, you should find it in the appropriate makefiles -
   make/java/redist/Makefile // this one lists all encumbered classes
   make/java/awt/Makefile   // lists closed classes in java.awt.* packages
   make/sun/font/Makefile   // font rasterizer-related stuff
   make/sun/cmm // ? not sure about the name, don't have the workspace here

   The way the build currently works is that there's a target
   in each of those makefiles which extracts the binary stuff
   from the plugs related to the files built from a particular
   directory. The one in make/java/redist/Makefile extracts
   all of them (it's run once when you build the ws from scratch)
   and then you can just rebuild from
    make/java/awt
   if you added some classes to java/awt/ packages.

   Thanks,
     Dmitri
