I agree.
We have a couple of systems in place for building with custom additions,
and different variants. But they are adapted to what we needed.
Dave, if you can specify more precisely what kind of additions and
alterations you need, I can suggest ways to do that, that is likely to
fit in the OpenJDK build system, and that might help to develop these
hooks into more generally useful ones. But unfortunately it is quite
dependent on exactly what kind of additions that are needed.
