OpenJDK 6 Build 17

[Michael Franz]

Ray,

The process seems to change and a number of people have either blogged about
it or posted instructions.  It would be nice if there was a place where the
current build process was hosted and updated.  I personally use the IcedTea
infrastructure to build as it seems to work the most consistently (once you
get past the patching issues - which can be a big issue).
