Building OpenJDK on Windows

This is a conflict between link.exe of CYGWIN and MSVC.

The formal process seems to suggest that you define environment  
variables to inform make to locate the correct find.exe (the MSVC  
one). I haven't tried it. I simply rename the link.exe in CYGWIN to  
something else.
