Differences between OpenJDK 6 hotspot tip and hsx14/master tip (Was: hg: jdk6/jdk6/hotspot: 557 new changesets)

Congrats, Andrew, and thanks for pushing this.

I've tried to build OpenJDK 6 with the updated hotspot code, and
noticed immediate build breakage on OpenSolaris 2009.06, due to the 
line 361 in hotspot/make/solaris/makefiles/buildtree.make :

    360 
    361 include $(GAMMADIR)/build/solaris/makefiles/rules.make
    362 

Of course, since there is no hostpot/build directory, the build 
fails. Curiously enough, the hsx 14 / master repository does not 
have those lines in that makefile, so I'm puzzled how or why they
are in the OpenJDK 6 hsx 14.

Running a diff on the hotspot repo in OpenJDK 6 vs the master of
hsx14 shows a lot of differences, mostly whitespace, but also in
several makefiles and the THIRD_PARTY_README file, curiously enough.

Are we missing some changesets in the hotspot repo?

cheers,
