I see some issues and questions about this patch.

First of all, and I believe this was discussed the last time this patch 
was around, is that there might be legal question marks about including 
build-aux/krb5.m4. This code is written by someone who has not, to my 
knowledge, signed the OCA. Unfortunately, legal issues tend to shadow 
all technical issues, so you might want to start by getting this one solved.

On the technical level, given that the krb5.m4 legality is cleared, I see:
* The patch does not seem to be updated to the removed old build system. 
make/sun/security is no more.
* Whitespace and indentation seems to be incorrect in several places in 
help.m4, libraries.m4 and SecurityLibraries.gmk. Please check 
surrounding code, or look at the guidelines here: 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2013-October/010477.html

I have only looked at the build part of the patch.
