RFR: 8221907: make reconfigure broken with "build/jmh/jars does not exist or is not a directory"

[Erik Joelsson]

Hello Jie,

This issue applies not only to --with-jmh, but to any configure 
parameter given with a relative path. I think the proper fix would be to 
record the current working directory when configure is launched and cd 
to that directory when running reconfigure. Here is my suggested patch:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~erikj/8221907/webrev.01/index.html

The relevant parts are exporting the variable from configure and using 
it in Init.gmk. The rest is just renaming the variable since CURDIR 
would clash with the pre defined make variable CURDIR.
