Hi,

For some reason the following change to jdk/makefiles/Setup.gmk results in a build failure:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/lambda/lambda/jdk/diff/a4c10f71e673/makefiles/Setup.gmk

Generating headers for jdk base classes
Compiling 886 files for BUILD_JOBJC_JAR
Compiling 886 files for BUILD_JOBJC_HEADERS_JAR
javac: invalid flag: -Xlint:all,-deprecation,-unchecked,-rawtypes,-cast,-serial,-dep-ann,-static,-fallthrough,-try,-varargs,-empty,-finally,-auxiliaryclass
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
use -help for a list of possible options
make[2]: *** [/Users/sandoz/Projects/jdk8/lambda/build/macosx-x86_64-normal-server-release/jdk/jobjc_classes/_the.batch] Error 2

Reverting the change fixed the problem for me.

Paul.
