[8u60] Request for approval to backport: 8067330: ZERO_ARCHDEF incorrectly defined for PPC/PPC64 architectures

[Severin Gehwolf]

Hi,

I've sent this email before[1], but would like for this backport to get
into 8u60 before it closes this month[2]. The patch in question only
touches Zero make variables and should be fairly safe to backport. The
patch is the same (modulo autogen.sh generation timestamp) as for JDK 9.
I'd also please need a sponsor who can push this change for me.

Thanks in advance!

Original 9 bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8067330
webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8067330/webrev.jdk8.01/

JDK 9 review thread:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2014-December/013895.html

Please let me know if there is anything else I need to do.

Cheers,
Severin
