Technically even Mavericks, but really it's Xcode 5/6... I never backported my Xcode 5 changes to 8u. It was on my list for a while but never accomplished due to lack of time.
Is there interest in doing so? If so, I can try to find the time to scrape up a backport. The final webrevs for JDK9 are still on CR: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ddehaven/8043340/v4/ They're also pre-Jigsaw M1 which means they might be easier to backport than what's current in JDK9. -DrD- > The short answer is that building jdk8 on Yosemite is not supported. > > A longer answer is that we're currently working on getting jdk9 to compile on > Yosemite.
