There are platform-specific data (such as charsets) which has been special-case in the makefile and they need follow-on clean up. I agree that this should be cleaned up by the component teams and not part of this PR.
With these new files showing up in under `src` directory, should `bin/idea.sh` be changed to exclude `data` to avoid incurring costs in loading JDK project from IDE that many of us use for development?
