trunk build failed on window with java.lang.StackOverFlowError...

[Myrna van Lunteren]

Hi,

I downloaded a copy of the shiny new hotspot jdk 8, and tried to build
trunk, on windows (7), but got two StackOverFlowError / out of resource
errors, like so:
     [javac] The system is out of resources.
    [javac] Consult the following stack trace for details.
