That's a linker error. Apparently AWT requires various X libraries, 
including libXtst, to be installed on the system.

You should try installing it on your system. There are some hints for 
Ubuntu in the build README: 
https://openjdk.dev.java.net/source/browse/*checkout*/openjdk/jdk/trunk/README-builds.html#SDBE

Hope that helps.
Andreas.
