jdk9/hs/hotspot make native libs for test build failure both on x86 and aarch64

[White, Derek]

I saw this on some of my machines also - I thought it was a configuration issue, but now I think it’s due to the fix for JDK-8067744 being incompatible with some versions of gcc (which have differences with "as-needed").

Created bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8169261

Hi,

jdk9/hs/hotspot native libs for jtreg build failed after the push of http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/hs/hotspot/rev/308a53dd5aee

Build command:  make test-image-hotspot-jtreg-native

Could someone please help to fix it?

The reason is that dl library isn't found. I think the following change could fix that:

------

diff --git a/make/test/JtregNative.gmk b/make/test/JtregNative.gmk index 78e78d7..95b5747 100644
