It does.

$ wget -v -O root.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ wget -v -O hotspot.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/hotspot/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ wget -v -O langtools.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/langtools/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ wget -v -O jdk.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ wget -v -O corba.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/corba/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ wget -v -O jaxp.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jaxp/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ wget -v -O jaxws.tar.bz2 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jaxws/archive/tip.tar.bz2
$ tar xjf root.tar.bz2
$ mv jdk9-* openjdk
$ tar -C openjdk -xjf hotspot.tar.bz2
$ tar -C openjdk -xjf langtools.tar.bz2
$ tar -C openjdk -xjf jdk.tar.bz2
$ tar -C openjdk -xjf corba.tar.bz2
$ tar -C openjdk -xjf jaxp.tar.bz2
$ tar -C openjdk -xjf jaxws.tar.bz2
$ mv openjdk/hotspot-* openjdk/hotspot
$ mv openjdk/langtools-* openjdk/langtools
$ mv openjdk/jdk-* openjdk/jdk
$ mv openjdk/corba-* openjdk/corba
$ mv openjdk/jaxp-* openjdk/jaxp
$ mv openjdk/jaxws-* openjdk/jaxws

That's pretty much how IcedTea did it for years before switching to pre-built drops, which
allow better compression and off-line testing.

If you don't want OpenJDK 9, change the hg.openjdk.java.net path to the appropriate one
(e.g. http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u). It's a bit convoluted but could easily
be put in a script.

You can also use tags e.g.

$ wget -v http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/archive/jdk8u76-b02.tar.bz2

to get jdk8u76-b02 instead of 'tip'.

wget accepts -c if your download is interrupted.
