Thanks!

I missed the step to build classpath, what a nice project at that time ;)

But next, what do I have to build?
How is the sequence to 'bootstrap' openjdk? I'm a newbie in this regard.

I get this when I do a make in java/openjdk7 (with patched Makefile from 
a previous post)

ERROR: Your BOOTDIR environment variable does not point \n       to a 
valid JDK for bootstrapping this build. \n       A JDK 7  build must be 
bootstrapped using  \n       JDK 1.6. fcs (or later). \n 
Apparently, your bootstrap JDK is version 1.5.0 \n       Please update 
your ALT_BOOTDIR setting and start your build again. \n


This is with openjdk7. The same happens with openjdk6.

my compiler chain is gcc-6.0.

I think a few things are missing here.
