   bash configure --with-tools-dir=/saved/xcode4/usr/bin/ ...

--Max

>>> Building JDK 8 with Xcode 5 is still a work in progress, I don't expect that effort to be backported to 7u so you might need to scrape up a copy of Xcode 4.6 to build with. The big issue is Xcode 5 does not include gcc and 7u does not build with clang without significant changes.
