hotspot-comp OS X builds

[Charles Oliver Nutter]

Kris answered about JDK8. As far as JDK7u, you can follow the 7u
mailing list. It looks like u12 has been renumbered to u14 (probably
to make room for any additional security releases that might be needed
in a u13), but you basically just want to track hs24-bXX and related
commit info.

Others on this list might be able to give you a more definitive
answer, but I have mostly been tracking Hotspot versions to know what
features are where.

FWIW, JRuby actually inspects Hotspot version to know whether to
default invokedynamic use to "on", since only hs24+ has fixed the
NCDFE issue.
