I've never seen this Yocto stuff before.

This is the support matrix:

   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   |        | OpenJDK-7/glibc | OpenJDK-8/glibc | OpenJDK-8/musl  |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   | arm    |       O K       |    int. mode    |    int. mode    |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   | armv7  |       O K       |       O K       |       O K       |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   | arm64  |    int. mode    |       O K       |       O K       |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   | x86    |    int. mode    |       O K       |  build failure  |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   | x86-64 |    int. mode    |       O K       |       O K       |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
   | ppc    |    int. mode    |  build failure  |  build failure  |
   +--------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+

It's a shame only to have the interpreter on AArch64/jdk7. I guess
they may be building from "official" OpenJDK 7 trees with no AArch64
support. Interpreter only on x86 is even weirder! Still, I guess jdk 7
is mostly irrelevant to new deployments.
