JDK-8037953 configure usability: Should provide better details on imported hotspot

[pointo1d]

Hi all ,

By way of a heads-up, I deem that the nature and relative size of the 
change (incorporating the comments from both Erik & David) now requires 
a webrev, so one has been generated and is awaiting hosting up on 
openjdk - of which further news as and when available.

On the point of which, I note that the contributor guide 
(http://openjdk.java.net/contribute/) claims that patches may be either 
in the body of, or attached to, e-mails but as we all know, attachments 
are removed - is this because they are ZIP files, or are ALL attachments 
removed be as it may and the guide is wrong in this respect ?

Rgds ,
