Hello,
Please review this little workaround for a current shortcoming in
Sjavac. See bug for more details. With this change, Sjavac will start
acting correctly again and not miss any files that need to be
recompiled. The approximation is course however, we should still fix
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8054717 to properly only
recompile what is really necessary. Still, this workaround does add
value compared to running without sjavac. With this change and
JDK-8014510 (also on review) I'm starting to feel confident enough to
make sjavac default for building jdk9.
