I have test failures, is master the correct branch to build from?

[David Holmes]

Hi Luke,

Please take this to hotspot-dev at openjdk.java.net (you will need to 
subscribe to it). There is not enough information here to know why 
specific tests are failing for you. make sure you apply the 
ProblemList.txt file when running jtreg so that known failures are excluded.

Thanks,
David
