This is a backport from 7u51.  CORBA tries to build against ORBUtilSystemException
before the source for it has been generated.  It thus uses whatever version is in
the bootstrap JDK, if any.  If the bootstrap JDK is b29 or earlier, or IcedTea
1.11.x or earlier, the version of ORBUtilSystemException will be outdated, compared
to the intree version, and a compile failure will ensue [0].

The fix from 7u simply adds the sun/rmi directory to SUBDIRS, so that generation
takes place earlier.

Ok to push?
