Bootstrapping with Apple's JDK 6 on Snow Leopard

[Eric Richardson]

Kent,

Michael Franz and I were attempting to use the Apple JDK to bootstrap
Icedtea and with a recommendation from Andrew Hughes we came up with a
script to make a more Sun like JDK layout. Michael had luck on Intel but I
had no luck on PPC. There are some classes that conflict and you will see
that tools is stripped out of the classes.jar.

You can modify it and give it a try. Make sure your build points to this
JDK.
