No, it should be able to bootstrap with itself.

Thanks for the feedback!

The implementation of "-emitPermissionCheck" is part of corba repo,
while this webrev contains just the JDK changes. Given that openjdk6
doesn't have the corresponding corba changes then it is pretty much
expected that it won't build.

Can you build openjdk6-b28 and/or a new-ish icedtea6 on your machine? If
so, then you should be able to build openjdk6 too once all the security
changes for all the repos are pushed.

Thanks,
Omair
