That worked, and the build completed finally!  It makes sense given  
the include order:

corba/make/javax/xa/Makefile              :include $(BUILDDIR)/common/ 
Defs.gmk
   corba/make/common/Defs.gmk		  :include $(BUILDDIR)/common/shared/ 
Platform.gmk
   corba/make/common/Defs.gmk		  :include $(TOPDIR)/make/common/ 
CancelImplicits.gmk
   corba/make/common/Defs.gmk		  :include $(TOPDIR)/make/common/Defs-$ 
(PLATFORM).gmk
     corba/make/common/Defs-linux.gmk	  :include $(BUILDDIR)/common/ 
shared/Defs.gmk
       corba/make/common/shared/Defs.gmk	  :include $(BUILDDIR)/ 
common/shared/Defs-utils.gmk
       corba/make/common/shared/Defs.gmk	  :include $(BUILDDIR)/ 
common/shared/Defs-$(PLATFORM).gmk
	(I inserted the LANGTOOLS_DIST definition here)
       corba/make/common/shared/Defs.gmk	  :include $(BUILDDIR)/ 
common/shared/Compiler.gmk
   corba/make/common/Defs.gmk		  :include $(BUILDDIR)/common/shared/ 
Defs-java.gmk
     corba/make/common/shared/Defs-java.gmk:  JAVAC_JAR   = $ 
(LANGTOOLS_DIST)/bootstrap/lib/javac.jar
