        6971426: jdk/make/docs docs target does not work on windows

        The boot jdk really needs to be at least 1.6 for jdk7.

        The jdk/make/docs/Makefile was recently re-worked but it wasn't
        very forgiving during partial
        builds where some of the directories might not exist, or when
        unrelated platform specific directories
        were purposely not included during the build.
        Note that even though the javadocs can be built on windows
        machines now, developers might want
        refrain from actually doing it on windows due to the build time
        hit and the fact that it is still not a
        complete documentation set when generated on windows (jvmti.html
        is not generated on windows).
