Yes, exactly. The langools Makefile looks *very* different from
jdk/hotspot. In order to get some unified status of test results across
all three, these changes were needed. I've opted to make the langools
Makefile look more like the ones from jdk and hotspot.

Old "make test" from top-level continues to work with these changes
(modulo -verbose:nopass=> summary change).

Anyway, I had another look at this and made 8075546[1] another pre-
requisite which makes the langtools changes slightly smaller. Updated
webrevs set, thus, is:

jdk:       http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8222737/04/jdk/webrev/
hotspot:   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8222737/03/hotspot/webrev/
langtools: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8222737/05/langtools/webrev/
top:       http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8222737/02/top/webrev/

Thanks,
Severin
