And I guess the successor of the 8u60 is going to be the last JDK8 release?
As far as I know, 8u60 is the last JDK8 feature release being done by
Oracle.

I have backported "8034788: Rewrite toolchain.m4 to support multiple

review?
JDK 8u40 is already released. Did you mean 8u60?
To get a backport in 8u60 means you need to get approval according to
http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk8u/groundrules.html.
If the backport does not apply cleanly (which I suspect in this case), then
you also need a review from the build team.
As I understand, 8u60 is already feature complete, and this change in
question is quite intrusive. I would not recommend backporting it to 8u60 at
this point.
