I'm (as usually) not as happy as Erik. ;-)

In Images.gmk, you have added this rule:
           $@ -Xshare:dump -Xmx128M -Xms128M $(LOG_INFO)

It took me a while to grasp. You are relying on $(JIMAGE_TARGET_FILE) to 
evaluate to bin/java. But that is only incidentally so. This file is 
just picked arbitrarily to represent when the entire image is done, for 
make. Please use $(JRE_IMAGE_DIR)/bin/java instead.

The logic in jdk-options.m4 is broken. If indeed it is not possible to 
use cds archive with zero, then things will break since it will still be 
built if using --enable-cds-archive!

What you should do is to set default to true unless using cross 
compilation or zero. If the user explicitly sets --enable-cds-archive, 
and it's not possible, a fatal error should be generated.

Apart from this, I'm more on Erik's line. :-)
