I've only tested using ports directly, with the bootstrap jdk separately =
installed. =20

I've not tested building in poudriere.  However, you can give it a try.

This is fantastic, thanks for working on it!  Can a build be kicked off =
in poudriere, or should I only test using ports directly (meaning, do =
the patches apply for using your build as bootstrap-jdk as well, or does =
the bootstrap binary jdk need to be installed separately)?
