I think you can set SKIP_FASTDEBUG_BUILD=true on the original make command line (at the end of build.sh).

It might also work to set "export SKIP_FASTDEBUG_BUILD=true" in the shell.

You can also chdir into the build directory and build and test the JVM incrementally:
  $ cd $DAVINCI/sources
  $ export JAVA_BUILD=$(cd build/bsd-i586/j2sdk-image; pwd -P)
  $ cd build/bsd-i586/hotspot/outputdir/bsd_i486_compiler2/fastdebug
  $ make
  $ alias gamma='JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_BUILD DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./gamma'
  $ gamma Queens #etc.

The "hg qpush" command manipulates the applied patch set.
  $ cd $DAVINCI/sources/hotspot
  $ hg qpop -a  # pop all
  $ hg qpush meth-ldc-6939203.patch  # push to that point
  $ hg qpop   # pop one back

Sorry about the mismatched patches.  I did a bunch of pushing to hotspot-comp last week and didn't clean up properly.  Will fix shortly.
