Need Reviewers - OpenJDK README-builds.html

[Dan Fabulich]

IMO, this document should not make any predictions about make 3.82, which 
is not yet released.

Last time I researched the "C:/" problem, the developers had said that 
"C:/" paths were defective and that they deliberately pulled support for 
them because they were too much hassle to support in cygwin.  They 
recommended using MSYS make instead.

Here's where they explain their position:

[aka MSYS make]
