I've just pushed a changeset which does a mass update / cleanup of
IcedTea for OpenJDK 8, allowing it to build the latest b80 from
upstream OpenJDK.
Most patches have been removed to give us a clean start and there's
a lot of build change, including the use of OpenJDK's new build
system, so no doubt things will be broken / missing at first. Things as
basic as system library support have yet to be added back in.
But this is a start. Please file bugs at
http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla for issues you encounter
or just supply a patch if it's something simple.
Let's see how quickly the autobuilders break on this :-)
