Hi Rene,

I just did a fresh clone and build and it succeeded for me, so now we have to 
figure out what the difference is.

> I started with building OpenJDK 8

This might be the first issue, I've always built against the dev preview builds 
of JDK 8, not OpenJDK 8. I tried to sort this out with Mario Torre a month back 
but didn't get to the bottom of it.

I assume you were using the very latest OpenJDK 8 though?

This is most likely bailing when looking for plugin.jar (which isn't part of 
OpenJDK). I believe this is just because the code is looking for JSObject. If 
you edit build.gradle and take out the plugin dependency, you can see where the 
build fails and why without it.
