[8u-dev] Request for approval for CR 8211933: [8u] hotspot adlc needs to link statically with libstdc++ for gcc7.3

[Kevin Walls]

Hi,

I'd like to request approval to push to 8u:

8211933: [8u] hotspot adlc needs to link statically with libstdc++ for 
gcc7.3
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211933

8u webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~kevinw/8211933/webrev.00/

build-dev review thread:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2018-October/023658.html

Essentially this adds -static-libstdc++ for linking adlc during an 8u 
build. This is needed e.g. when we build with gcc7.x using our devkit 
bundle and we won't necessarily find a correct version of that library 
on the system.  adlc is only used at build time, so this doesn't affect 
how e.g. libjvm is linked.

(I am trying to add noreg-build and 9-na labels, but can't get in to jbs 
right now.)

Thanks
Kevin
