Some Linux distros have started to adopt a "multiarch" filesystem layout for shared libraries in order to support the installation of packages for multiple hardware architectures on a single system. For more information see, e.g., http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch. In Ubuntu 11.10 the ALSA shared library, libasound2, was converted to the multiarch format and so its files moved from their old location, /usr/lib, to /usr/lib/${ARCH_TRIPLET}. This caused the JDK build to fail when linking the Java sound library. The root cause appears to be that gcc only tries to resolve undefined symbols against a multiarch library if the library is named on the command line after the object files containing those symbols. The fix is simply to move -lasound to the end of the gcc invocation. I'll push this into JDK 8. It would trivially backport to 7.
