OPENJDK env var not playing well with new build (original) (raw)

I thought building an OpenJDK or Oracle JDK can be fully controlled by using the --enable-openjdk-only configure option, but it seems the OPENJDK env variable still plays a part. If the variable is set to true and --enable-openjdk-only is not provided, the new build process gets confused and fails.

I understand this is my fault and I should not have that variable around. However, it will be nice if the build can deny all external variables like it did with all those ALT_*** variables. Are there any other variables I should be aware of?

Thanks Max
