Hello,

I'm re-starting this review with the original proposed patch. This changes the required boot-JDK in configure from the set "9 10 or 11" to "10 or 11". It also changes what Oracle uses in its automated build environment setup from 9 GA to 10 GA.

I do this based on the proposal [1] to retain the historical N - 1 boot-JDK policy, which has not met any objections yet.

Now that JDK 10 has been officially released we can update the boot jdk requirement for JDK 11. Cross posting this to jdk-dev to raise awareness of this rather disruptive change.

This patch changes the requirement on boot jdk version in configure (and updates the configuration that controls what JDK to use as boot in Oracle's internal build system). Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~erikj/8200083/webrev.01/ Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200083 /Erik
