RFR: 8251886: Unable to use --disable-zip-debug-info on JDK8 Windows

[Andrew Leonard]

Hi Andrew,
I hadn't seen that bug, I'm looking through the changesets for it:
https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/rev/5193a7e23f14
https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/rev/4cbb04a368cb
And must say seems quite a bit more complex, there's some tidying up in 
those, but not sure I understand the actual change although GNU make is 
hard to follow sometimes, i'll have a compare of it tomorrow.
Thanks
Andrew

Is this https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8025936?

It seems backporting that would also unify the handling of unpack.
