Sadly, I haven't seen anything that completely describes the design. All
I have are bits and pieces:

- https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7092218
- https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7071907
- http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2012-March/005798.html
- http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/distro-pkg-dev/2014-March/026450.html

Hope that helps.
