The update webrev looks okay to me, except this part of the comment in 
flags-cflags.m4

"Now that unpack200 has been removed we should consider setting it for 
windows too. but this could be done as a follow-up effort. It could be 
that other other clients are relying on the current configuration for 
windows".

I think it would be best to create an infrastructure/build issue and 
leave most of this  confusing comment out.
