[security-dev 00039]: Re: JDK 7 build 24 is available at the openjdk.java.net website

I'm glad Andreas was able to help you resolve your issue while I was on 
vacation.

There is one more minor issue which came out of this discussion.  I 
included the Release.gmk files too early in my crypto Makefiles, and as 
a result, gnumake by itself will fail because the wrong default target 
is made.

6644659:  Error in default target of make/javax/crypto in OpenJDK build

As a workaround, simply specify the desired target, such as:

     % gnumake all

This won't affect the default OpenJDK builds, as they build "all" by 
default.

Thanks, and Happy New Year.
