Successfully building 32- and 64-bit OpenJDK 8 on WinXP/64bit with free tools only

[Volker Simonis]

Hi,

I've put together a short description on how to build both, a 64- and
a 32-bit version of OpenJDK 8 on a plain, vanilla WindowsXP 64-bit
operating system using only free (as in free beer) tools:

It seems as if  it is not that hard anymore nowadays:)
