Brent/Alan/Mike,

Hashing.java was removed from the JDK workspace, but was not removed
from the old java/java/FILES_java.gmk. Things that still depend on the
old build (JCE/deploy) are currently broken.

P.S. I'm very aware that we need to move off the old build soon and am
getting closer to finally working on it with Erik, and that the old
build isn't complete. But it's complete enough for the JCE
dependencies. Unfortunately, this isn't a simple transition
(JDK-8006350), and this is a quick fix to get the JCE bits built.

The old build has not produced usable bits for several months, it may
not have been failing but if you look closely (or run the tests) then
you'll see that there are several things missing. On build-dev then
you'll probably have seen a mail or two from me where I was trying to
encourage the build group to set a date to finally retire and remove the
old build - this is because the old build is just a tax on every change
that needs to touch the build.

Anyway, the change looks okay but I strongly encourage you to put in the
time to resolve the usability or others ssues that arise when working on
JCE.

+1 ( on the actual changes, and moving off the old build )
