Good observation David, the change in adlc is just fixing a symptom. The difference to a regular macOS build is that technically, despite running on the same machine, it's actually cross compiling due to Rosetta being the --build=x86_64 system.
Being a cross-compile, we therefore hit this case: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/b0ceab23dd4176329cbf3a95f21e8e9ac2d8723f/make/autoconf/toolchain.m4#L905-L921 And thus infers `/usr/bin/CC` for CXX. I guess cross compiling hasn't been a thing on macOS yet. I tried the following and it passes the adlc build: --- a/make/autoconf/toolchain.m4 +++ b/make/autoconf/toolchain.m4 @@ -917,7 +917,7 @@ AC_DEFUN_ONCE([TOOLCHAIN_SETUP_BUILD_COMPILERS], # find the build compilers in the tools dir, if needed.

Of course this change doesn't warrant a JEP in itself :) My point is that until we have a JEP for the platform that is being targeted then we shouldn't be making changes to provide support for that platform. That said I didn't actually look at the changes but focused on the larger stated aim, so apologies for that. The actual changes here are small and not obviously related to supporting macOS-Aarch64. But I'm unclear on this change as it affects all macOS builds: 42 else ifeq ($(call isBuildOs, macosx), true) 43 ADLC_LDFLAGS := -lc++ if this was fixing a bug as indicated, why do we not see this bug in regular builds?
