Round two - RFR (7152336): Enable OpenJDK builds on Windows with MinGW/MSYS

[Tim Bell]

I went over the open changes again and removed some debug code left in
by mistake, updated copyright dates and fixed a few typos.  Here is an
updated webrev:

     http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~tbell/7152336/webrev.01/

These changes are building in both 32 and 64 bit mode on my Windows 7 
system.

jtreg test runs of the '-automatic -noshell' tests under test/java/lang 
test/java/math test/java/util ran as expected (2 failures, both known 
bugs).

Thanks in advance for your review and feedback - I'd like to get these 
changes in soon.
