The first three patches are needed to get native Hotspot to build on Linux sparc. Without the patches, the builds bails out with compiler errors. So, should I just run the testsuite with all three patches applied? The fourth patch just fixes Zero on Linux sparc. If I understand correctly, Debian's openjdk packages always build the Zero VM even on targets with a native Hotspot. And without the last patch, the Zero build fails on Linux sparc. Adrian -- .''`.
