I remember seeing this but I thought it is a JDK 7 build issue (but I 
could be wrong).  I suggest filing a bug to track this and I can look 
into it when I get a chance.   It would be really helpful if you can try 
that on jdk7/jdk repo with some change that causes a build failure and 
see if you can reproduce the same issue.
