Mac OS X build errors missing instancetype + further issues just after building jdk.xml.ws

[Vadim Pakhnushev]

David,

Not really with the latest clang, there is this bug 
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8077364, which is only in 
hotspot repo yet.
With this fix this should work though (at least works for me).

Thanks,
Vadim
