Jon, Kelly, Xiomara,
Thank you very much for your feedback. I decided to revise the fix to:
1. Leave the current c:\jdk default path for those who still uses it.
2. Issue a warning message on MS Windows platform if the BOOTDIR is
located on the J: drive (that is assumed to be mapped over network).
Here's the updated webrev:

Please review.

On pretty much any system you can tell if a drive is local or not,

That would be cool. However I don't see much justification around
verifying for sure if a path is on the network. After all it's just a
warning message, not a error.
It's very easy to check on windows (in shell, adjust appropriately for
makefile):
net use j: > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
# local drive
else
# remote drive
fi
If you want to be fancy you could grep the output of net use for "Remote
Resource" or something..
Thanks,
Dmitri
