Removal of the old build system, partial review

[Bradford Wetmore]

I've looked over:

jdk/make/com/oracle/security/ucrypto
jdk/make/com/sun/crypto/provider
jdk/make/com/sun/security
jdk/make/java/security
jdk/make/javax/crypto
     There may be some things we want to add back as part of the work
     ErikJ/I are doing
jdk/make/javax/others
jdk/make/javax/rmi
jdk/make/javax/security
jdk/make/sun/security

My only comment:

Just to make sure nothing is inadvertently removed, in the jdk directory 
I noticed 44 mapfile-vers* being removed, but only 37 are present in the 
new makefiles/mapfiles.  Any concerns here?
