I have made a bit of progress however the build now ends like so:-

STATS: LIBRARY=npt, PRODUCT=sun, OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL=LOWER

In otherwords it is failing to find libiconv.  And I have  iconv

root [ ~ ]# ls -l /usr/lib/*iconv*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    938 Apr  9 03:09 /usr/lib/libiconv.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     17 Apr  9 03:09 /usr/lib/libiconv.so -> 
libiconv.so.2.5.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     17 Apr  9 03:09 /usr/lib/libiconv.so.2 -> 
libiconv.so.2.5.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 970461 Apr  9 03:09 /usr/lib/libiconv.so.2.5.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 962959 Apr  9 03:09 /usr/lib/preloadable_libiconv.so
root [ ~ ]# 

For a fix I I tried the following to no avail:-
--A) Looked through the README.builds.html 
 ( http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/build/raw-file/tip/README-builds.html ) 
and found no obvoious settings for  forcing the build program to see 
/usr/lib/libiconv.
--B) set the envronmental variable  LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib"
--C) made a wild guess and set the environmental variable  LIBS="liconv"
--D) tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}   which 
resulted in  complaints   that it should be unset

advice would be appreiated
