This happens trying to test Java 8 following the instructions described in http://java.net/projects/adoptopenjdk/pages/BuildWindows that I thought were related to the new system and then trying to test the installation using the instructions provided here http://java.net/projects/adoptopenjdk/pages/InstallJtreg.
Is this the old system of testing the jdk? The building itself succeeds, it's the test Makefile that gives me troubles (OpenJDK/jdk8_tl/jdk/test) to be precise. Nevertheless, I'll try to build the make from the sources and see if that also fixes it.
