README-builds.html is out of data (in jdk8/tl). It still refers to JDK
6u18 as the bootstrap JDK. Furthermore, bootstrapping with the
jdk7u/jd7u tip does not work due to the following
warning-treated-as-error:
| ##### Entering langtools for target(s) all #####
| [...]
| -def-pcompile:
| [javac] Compiling 2 source files to [...]/build/linux-amd64/langtools/build/toolclasses
| [javac] warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.6
| [javac] error: warnings found and -Werror specified
| [javac] 1 error
| [javac] 1 warning
So it seems that the required bootstrap JDK is a JDK 7 version which is
about a year old (which did not include the warning; I haven't tried
building). Is this intentional? If not, what's going on here?
