For some users, the build fails with:

dirname: illegal option -- s usage: dirname path usage: basename string [suffix]        basename [-a] [-s suffix] string [...] error: cannot read file /Users/danielfuchs/workspaces/jdk/jdk-dev/build/macosx-x64/support/gensrc/jdk.hotspot.agent/mach_excServer.c

Gensrc-jdk.hotspot.agent.gmk:52: recipe for target '/Users/danielfuchs/workspaces/jdk/jdk-dev/build/macosx-x64/support/gensrc/jdk.hotspot.agent/mach_excServer.c' failed make[3]: *** [/Users/danielfuchs/workspaces/jdk/jdk-dev/build/macosx-x64/support/gensrc/jdk.hotspot.agent/mach_excServer.c] Error 1 make/Main.gmk:112: recipe for target 'jdk.hotspot.agent-gensrc-src' failed make[2]: *** [jdk.hotspot.agent-gensrc-src] Error 2 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

I have identified two reasons for failures here and this patch makes it work for at least one reporter of the problem. The missing MakeTargetDir caues a race where the target directory may not exist yet. It seems mig on newer Macos handles this anyway. For some configurations, the SDKROOT variable does not have a value. In that case, we should not set the -isysroot parameter to mig. (I also changed the MKDIR in the other recipe to the now preferred MakeTargetDir macro)
