Tested the cross compilation bits with a win-aarch64 build from win-x86_64: - Cygwin: `--openjdk-target=aarch64-unknown-cygwin --with-boot-jdk=/cygdrive/c/work/jdk-16+22` - WSL1: `--openjdk-target=aarch64-unknown-cygwin --with-boot-jdk=/mnt/c/work/jdk-16+22` And smoke tested each one on win-aarch64 with `jtreg:tier1_compiler_1`. Cosmetic: I get a bunch of warnings for non-existing paths in `$PATH` during configure on the wsl1 build, e.g.: configure: Setting extracted environment variables for x86_64 I'll give the "native compilation" on win-aarch64 a try again when this change has landed. Some bits (e.g. config.guess) required for it have made it into this PR, but some things are still missing (e.g. choose x86 binaries for MSVC, since no native bits are available for MSVC).
