SA and JDK ( was Re: JDK8 Preliminary Repository Layout)

[Dr Andrew John Hughes]

Yes, I just haven't had the time to post a webrev of this against the
current tree. IcedTea is on an older build drop (b123) and the fix was
needed there to allow bootstrapping. I planned to get this one in
first and then handle the additional warnings produced by -Xlint:all
in another patch, but I can do it in one if preferred. My personal
preference is for minimal changesets.
