Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-java (Nobody) <java@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 279367: java/openjdk11 -- build with the base compiler, not custom LLVM https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=279367 --- Description --- It is somewhat disheartening, how easily port-maintainers give up upon encountering problems with the base compiler -- and make a custom compiler a requirement instead... openjdk11 currently requires an LLVM -- of version 12 -- and this PR seeks to fix that. The proposal adds a patch, which was once part of the opendjk17 port back in (see Bug 274109). This fixes the problem with the linking. Separately, the now-fatal compiler warning is explicitly disabled -- so the code compiles. It also places the custom CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS into the CONFIGURE_ARGS (as the JDK maintainers want).
