If the newly built JDK fails to run ("DOA"), we will get a strange error
message about jdk.compiler-gendata errors from make. The reason is not at all
obvious.
Instead, we should make a simple check that we can actually use the new JDK
before starting to use it for the first time, and report clearly to the user if
this is not the case.
