This still looks weird. I'm beginning to feel sorry for you and all your 
troubles. :-( 

I took the "real" changes in this PR and applied them to a new branch in my own 
personal fork, and regenerated the html file properly (I also fixed trailing 
spaces...)

This is available at 
https://github.com/magicus/jdk/tree/configure-explicit-build-platform. 

At this point the current PR is really messed up. My recommendation is that you 
either close this PR and let me integrate my branch, setting you as the 
contributor, or that you reset this branch back to master, import my branch, 
and force-push to your branch. (It is normally not recommended, and frowned 
upon, to do force pushes, but in this case it would be appropriate.)
