Review Request: 6812511: Allow Interpreter-only builds

[Gary Benson]

Hi all,

I have a patch that's been sitting in the bug databases for a while:

  https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/show_bug.cgi?id=100011
  http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6812511

It allows HotSpot to be built interpreter-only, which is required
for the Zero assembler port.  It touches both the hotspot and the
jdk forests, so it may need approval from someone in both teams.
Christian Thalinger (twisti) said that someone (Kelly?) told him
verbally it was fine to commit a while back, but it was a month
or so ago and can't remember exactly what was said.  I have push
access (I think -- I've not tried it out yet!) but I don't want
to commit it while it's ambiguous like this.

Cheers,
Gary
