Hello, I noticed the following  strange "feature" (or is it a bug?) .
When  building 2 VM variants in one build  and  using

  --with-jvm-variants=minimal,server

For this, the build works nicely. But I notice that  in the server VM, cds  is 
removed.
Instead of

checking if cds should be enabled... yes

I get ( with the following patch that adds tracing)  :

configure: WARNING: ENABLE_CDS set to false because we found a minimal, core or 
zero JVM.
checking if cds should be enabled... no
  ...

* JVM features:   minimal: 'compiler1 minimal serialgc'       server: 
'compiler1 compiler2 epsilongc g1gc jfr jni-check jvmti management nmt 
parallelgc serialgc services vm-structs'

Is it expected that  cds goes away in "server"   when  configuring  
"--with-jvm-variants=minimal,server"   ?   Looks like a bug to me,  should it 
be fixed   (so that cds stays in the server   jvm-feature list) ?


Thanks, Matthias
