As I understand it, bootstrapping v1.8 from scratch isn't possible. It 
needs OpenJDK v1.7 to be installed. Unfortunately, v1.7 can't be built with 
the existing recipe, not sure if it only hangs on the SOURCE_URI pointing 
to a non-existing dropbox archive...

Hamish, do you happen to have a working v1.7 OpenJDK still laying around 
somewhere? If that one were to be installed on the buildbots, the v1.8 
recipe should work, I think.
