I'm not sure that these make targets are actually used. I think they 
were added as an experiment to try out running the (non-open) JCK in 
Oracle's internal build+test system. It's possible they could be removed 
as part of the ongoing effort to re-work this make file. To my 
knowledge, these make targets were never documented and I can only 
assume you just happen to spot them in the test/Makefile. If you are 
looking to run the jdk tests via the make file then the jdk* make 
targets should be used.
