No, I think that is correct. Katja explained this offline. Jtreg
isn't able to work out dependencies the same way that javac does.
So, you need to either explicitly list all sources to be built
or provide the wildcard. My change would have worked, but
given the above it's probably safer to stick with the wildcard.
