I have half a mind to look at the Configure changes myself in my spare
time (ha!), but I have no spare time, and I don't have the expertise
in this area anyway. So anyone is welcome to pick this up. In
principle it should be fairly simple, and I think it's fairly
important. This isn't the first time someone's been bitten by having
the wrong boot JDK version, and it won't be the last.

Currently, configure checks that the found boot jdk is 7 or 8. Do we
really want to actively prevent using 8 all together? I could agree to
printing a big warning in the summary at the end of configure to
discourage it, but I do believe it necessary to have the ability to
build with 8 for tracking down certain bugs.
