Interesting. I think slide 26 should also have 'incllulde
./make/rhino-rules.gmk'
to match the previous slide.

OT, but the mention of binary plugs in the slides made me question
whether they are  still relevant given IcedTea passed
the JCK without any?  For OpenJDK6, is this now just the optional SNMP
support?  It would be good if someone could
make it clear what's still needed for OpenJDK6 and OpenJDK7 (which
seem to differ in this respect too).
IcedTea probably needs a cleanout in terms of long-dead binary plugs
it still tries to provide.
