As further background to others, the reverting of the $ substitution 
became possible when Nashorn removed $ from its generated classes [1].

I've looked through the changes and they look really good to me. Putting 
$< in single quotes to avoid shell expansion is the solution that I 
could not find when adding the de-beaning recipes a few months ago. It's 
great to see PROFILE_4 renamed to FULL_JRE and is also great to remove 
the redundant sub-packages from the include lists. For 
profiles-rtjar-includes then I think it makes it much more readable and 
maintainable. Two minor inconsistencies: the sub-packages of 
javax.naming are listed and com/sun/jndi/ has a trailing slash.

One probable side effect of removing the redundant sub-packages will be 
the javadoc. The one case to date where we didn't list sub-packages is 
java.time (because there are still changes going on there) and that the 
result is that the sub-packages of java.time don't show up in the 
profiles view. I created 8008367 a few weeks for that and I suspect that 
once these changes are pushed that the profiles view will be very 
incomplete. I don't think this should be a reason to hold off your 
changes as the profiles view isn't right now anyway. Hopefully Bhavesh 
will get to this soon.

I think Erik should review this too as it's important that the build 
changes in jdk8/tl will merge easily with changes going into jdk8/build.
