I'm not sure what targets you are thinking of here. This is one of the cases 
where the distinction between OS and toolchain is not entirely clear. I'm 
treating them as synonyms. There are two reasons two separate target OS here:

1) syntax in linker. The microsoft linker uses `jvm.lib`, all others `-ljvm`.

2) different needs in the source code. When there are vastly different 
implementations for a lib on different OSes, we can have a situation where e.g. 
the macOS port needs libjava, but the other platforms don't.

Issue 1) will be resolved by the upcoming JDK_LIBS rewrite. Issue 2 is 
inherited from the limitations in the source code, and since that source code 
is structured on a per-OS basis, we will only need to have JDK_LIBS options 
per-OS.
