This tool has to run with the newly built langtools on the boot JDK. 
It's for the "profiles" target only but is not executed yet because 
there it depends on changes in jdk8/tl that haven't got to jdk8/profile 
yet. So this has zero impact at this time.

I'm not aware of any way for the new build to pull a pre-built langtools 
from an import JDK, if partial builds like the old system are supported 
then you are right that it might require some adjustments.
