Hi all,

Shark is a JIT compiler for Zero, the zero-assembler port of HotSpot.
Shark uses the LLVM compiler infrastructure to compile Java methods
without introducing system-specific code.  Shark was integrated into
HotSpot as 6976186, but there are a couple of build system tweaks
required before Shark can be built seamlessly.  They are included in
this webrev:

  http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbenson/shark-build-02/

With this change, building Shark is much the same as building Zero,
except that instead of doing this:

  export ZERO_BUILD=true
  . jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh
  gmake sanity && gmake

you do this:

  export SHARK_BUILD=true
  . jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh
  gmake sanity && gmake

Is this the correct list to review this change?

Cheers,
Gary
