I am using gcc-5.3. The exact error is:

cc1plus: error: the "stabs" debug format cannot be used with pre-compiled
headers [-Werror=deprecated]

I see the same error string in the gcc-4.8.3 sources I have around.
I don't have anything older... Searching through google for that error
message, it appears that the jdk build broke with gcc-4.8.

Best,
