The new build has been the default for more than 4 months now (since

is a plan to remove the old make files?
I understand the security team is still stuck with the old until all
their issues are resolved. The fix I have for them is unfortunately
breaking sjavac, for which I have requested a fix from langtools. Even
if sjavac isn't default I think it would be bad to push a change that
made it completely useless.
Okay, I thought the issue for the security-dev folks was behind us. Once
this one is fixed (without breaking sjavac) then what would you think
about setting a date, after which the old build is "officially" dead.
