QNX port

Hi all!

I finally started the port of OpenJDK on QNX I wanted to do since so
long.

For now the task is to build an x86 distribution, hopefully with
hotspot, maybe with cacao and it will use Caciocavallo for the graphics
code.

Is a bit challenging as there's not Java suitable to bootstrap the build
process, so I will need to patch the code to support cross compiling.

It will be fun, indeed :)

I have two questions:

1. Is there anyone interested in this as well?
2. Would the porter group be willing to support this project under the
porter umbrella?

I'm already in the porter group because of Cacio (unless I missed
something and was kicked out of it ;), but I have no clue if this is
enough or require a new vote or else.

Any comments?

Cheers,
Mario
