New builds from the build-infra team

If you get a chance, could you try this experiment again with the latest in jdk8/build forest?
I fixed a few more libraries that I think had a missing -lc.

I don't have access to a Solaris SPARC 11.1 system, and so far the issues you have run into seem to
be unique to SPARCV9 builds on 11.1, the Solaris X64 11.1 systems I have access to don't seem to reproduce this issue.
I can only assume that the compiler or the system behaves differently between SPARCV9 and X64 on 11.1. :^(
