Thanks, I will correct those before pushing.

(including nashorn-dev since a makefile there is touched)

When creating a Setup* macro that takes named parameters, like SetupJavaCompilation, there is a lot of copied boilerplate code that needs to be written. The code, which is essentially copied for all these macro definitions, handles converting the named parameters into local variables and some debugging features. Here is SetupJavaCompilation as an example:

define SetupJavaCompilation
$(if $(16),$(error Internal makefile error: Too many arguments to SetupJavaCompilation, please update JavaCompilation.gmk)) $(call EvalDebugWrapper,$(strip $1),$(call SetupJavaCompilationInner,$(strip $1),$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$(10),$(11),$(12),$(13),$(14),$(15)))
endef

define SetupJavaCompilationInner
$(foreach i,2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15, $(if $(strip $($i)),$1_$(strip $($i)))$(NEWLINE)) $(call LogSetupMacroEntry,SetupJavaCompilation($1),$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$(10),$(11),$(12),$(13),$(14),$(15)) $(if $(16),$(error Internal makefile error: Too many arguments to SetupJavaCompilation, please update JavaCompilation.gmk))
  ...
endef


I have figured out a way to reduce this boilerplate significantly, massively reducing the overhead and resistance for creating new macros. The logic for converting the named parameters and all the debugging features are now defined only once in MakeBase.gmk. The corresponding declaration of SetupJavaCompilation is reduced to this:

SetupJavaCompilation = $(NamedParamsMacroTemplate)
define SetupJavaCompilationBody
  ...
endef

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8074988
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~erikj/8074988/webrev.01

Only two minor things to pick on:

make/common/MakeBase.gmk at new line #399:
  'macor' should be 'macro'

test/make/TestJavaCompilation.gmk at line #70
  'DEPSENDENCIES' should be 'DEPENDENCIES'

Good catch!

Apart from these typos, it looks good to me too.
