Hi All,
I had download the OpenJDK source code yesterday and tried to build

That's a known issue. On Ubuntu 8.04 they use 'dash' rather than 'bash'
and it's mostly compatible but for the dash in 8.04 it incorrectly
handles some shell scripts in the openjdk source tree that are used to
process some java template sources that create the some of the java
source files.

I suppose one fix would be to change that symbolic link to point to
'bash' instead. Another workaround is to add a 'SHELL=/bin/bash' to one
or more makefile.
