Compile JRE for PPC 32 bit

[Radu Andritoiu]

Hello,

I am trying to to build a HEADLESS jre only.

I observed that:
 - in the jdk solaris sources related to drawing the "HEADLESS" define is
used a lot
 - when building "libawt.so" the flag -DHEADLESS has no mechanism to being
set, so I presume that libawt.so will always be HEADFUL
 - when building "libawt_headless.so" and linking "libjawt.so",
BUILD_HEADLESS_ONLY variable is used, but I do not see any mechanism to set
it

I am adding the parameter "--disable-headful" when running the "configure"
script.
And this does set:

SUPPORT_HEADFUL:=no
SUPPORT_HEADLESS:=yes
BUILD_HEADLESS:=true

but does nothing to set  BUILD_HEADLESS_ONLY.

Should I manually add BUILD_HEADLESS_ONLY variable in Awt2dLibraries.gmk
and  -DHEADLESS when compiling "libawt.so" ?


Thank you,
Radu
