Thanks, I get it now. It's initially a bit confusing because the 
hgforest.sh script in nashorn/jdk8 doesn't appear to have been updated 
to add the "nashorn" repository, hence get_source.sh does not clone it. 
Also it doesn't appear that the top-level make files know about 
"nashorn" yet and so it isn't built. Maybe folks building Nashorn today 
just copy nashorn.jar into the ext directory?
