I don't think it's worth spending time on this, instead we just need to 
get the message out again that we have to live with two build systems 
for a transitional period and that it's easy to break the one that you 
aren't using.

Some people that push to jdk8/tl are using the old build system, some 
are using the new build system. The latter group have had their builds 
broken several times recently, almost always after changes from master 
were pulled down to jdk8/tl. There have been one or two local breakages 
too but they are easy to fix quickly, it's the changes from distant 
planets (jdk8/awt and jdk8/2d in particular) that hurt as the lag to get 
the fixes through is just too long.

Lana Steuck does most of the integrations and sync up of the jdk8 
forests, she's going to do sanity builds with the new build prior to 
integrating, and I think perhaps prior to pulling too, so that should at 
least reduce the instances of breakage until the transition is done and 
the old build is 5 foot under.
