RFR [JEP 220] Modular Run-Time Images - fix zero build

[Dave Pointon]

Hmmm ,

Would it not be possible to modify Xerxes' suggested patch to do something
along the lines of ...

# sa-jdi.jar do not exist for Itanium and zero
ifeq ($(shell if test -a $(HOTSPOT_DIST)/lib/sa-jdi.jar; then echo N; fi),N)
  SA_TARGETS += \
    $(JDK_OUTPUTDIR)/modules/jdk.hotspot.agent/_the.sa.jar.unpacked \
    $(SUPPORT_OUTPUTDIR)/gensrc/jdk.hotspot.agent/_the.sa.services
endif

Just a thought

Now I saw, tho' too late, the folly of beginning a work before we count the
cost and before we we judge rightly of our strength to go thro' with it -
