It should be the same, except in the openjdk directory instead of the
openjdk-ecj directory.
I'm assuming the OP did a full build initially, as he says he changed
things in openjdk/hotspot
not openjdk-ecj/hotspot.  For icedtea-ecj there is also a hotspot
target which deletes the stamp and rebuilds only HotSpot.
