MLVM and OpenJDK b36

I'm new to MLVM and trying to build it so I can play around with it.
It appears that the current patches were built and intended for
OpenJDK b34 (based on one failing and the tags in the series file
indicating b34). I've tried several things and can't seem to find the
right combination to make it work. Below are the things I've tried.
Anyone have pointers?
1. With a current (b36) clone of jdk7, all patches except the
langtools/meth seem to apply correctly. In the meth patch the changes
to .../javac/tools/Name.java are no longer valid. Looks like this
logic was moved to Names.java. I manually applied the changes to
Names.java, but after a full build I'm not finding the new java.dyn.*
classes anywhere (maybe I'm missing them?) The sources are there
though.
2. (F)cloned jdk7 at "-r jdk7-b34" in a clean area, but when I try to
apply the hotspot patches it fails on various interpreter files in
src/cpu/x86/vm.
I'm running this on Ubuntu Desktop 7.10-amd64 in case that makes a difference.
Is there a plan to update the patch for b36? Or some combination of
steps someone knows about that will work on b34?
