Static build on linux?

[Bob Vandette]

I suggest that you start with JDK9 since it already has support for building 
the native libraries used with java.base statically (including the jvm).

Otherwise you’ll have to backport most of the changes done under this RFE.

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8136556?jql=text%20~%20%22static%20build%22
