Problems building OpenJDK 8 for MacOSX

[David Clunie]

By the way, the configure output was as follows:

% bash configure | grep X11
checking what is not needed on an X11 build on MacOSX?... alsa pulse
checking for X11/extensions/shape.h... yes
checking for X11/extensions/Xrender.h... yes
checking for X11/extensions/XTest.h... no
configure: error: Could not find all X11 headers (shape.h Xrender.h 
XTest.h).

% bash ./configure --with-x="/opt/X11" | grep X11
checking what is not needed on an X11 build on MacOSX?... alsa pulse
checking for X11/extensions/shape.h... yes
checking for X11/extensions/Xrender.h... yes
checking for X11/extensions/XTest.h... no
configure: error: Could not find all X11 headers (shape.h Xrender.h 
XTest.h).

% bash ./configure CPATH="/opt/X11/include" | grep X11
checking what is not needed on an X11 build on MacOSX?... alsa pulse
checking for X11/extensions/shape.h... yes
checking for X11/extensions/Xrender.h... yes
checking for X11/extensions/XTest.h... yes
using configure arguments 'CPATH=/opt/X11/include'.
