This patch introduces a more abstract concept of "JDK_LIBS", where only the library name (e.g. "java" or "java.desktop:jawt") is specified, and the build system turns this into suitable linker flags: `-ljawt -L<correct path>` or `jawt.lib -libpath:<correct path>`, depending on linker. It will also automatically create proper dependencies.

I should've looked through this more carefully. The selection on whether to use -L and -libpath: should've been based on the compiler, not the target OS
