On building OpenJDK6 from the Mercurial forest with IcedTea, I found that the class sun.nio.cs.Unicode is not built as it is not listed in FILES_java.gmk. Presumably, it was being pulled in before by some dependency which has changed since b17. The failure only occurs when bootstrapping with ecj but I don't think we should be relying on the dependency resolution of compilers to pull in essential classes (the lack of this one causes the VM to fail to even print the help output).
This webrev http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/build/webrev.01/ fixes the issue and should probably go into 7 as well. Does this look ok? If so, can I have a bug ID to push it?
