In Jake, when crosscompiling, we need to build a subset of the jdk,
including hotspot, to be able to run jmod and jlink. Currently, the
build compiler is just found on the system so such a configuration
requires the build system to basically be able to compile the jdk
without a devkit. The idea with devkits was partly to avoid this. The
solution would be to add another configure parameter that defines a
devkit for the build compiler.
