Just to clarify: I did not say the name needed to be long, just that many (if 
not all) tools has used the convention of using the package name 
`build.tools.` and the class name `.java`. 

I think the new name sounds  .

I was not aware of such a convention and I can't say I agree with it. It just 
seems redundant and unnecessary, but I suppose we should wait for Magnus to

You are right. It no longer does (the old approach did, though). I'll clean it 
up.

The new approach certainly makes the build part simpler, which I appreciate. 
Left some polishing comments. You don't need to address them until the general 
approach is accepted.

make/CompileToolsJdk.gmk line 50:

> 48: EXCLUDES := \
> 49: build/tools/classlist \
> 50: build/tools/runtimeimagelinkdeltaproducer \

This directory name is comically long. I guess that's not really a problem, but 
perhaps "linkdelta" would be descriptive enough given that the class has the 
full name anyway?

make/Images.gmk line 114:

> 112: ifeq ($(JLINK_PRODUCE_RUNTIME_LINK_JDK), true)
> 113:   RL_BUILD_CLASSES := runtimeimagelinkdeltaproducer-classes
> 114:   RL_DELTA_GEN_CLASSES := $(BUILDTOOLS_OUTPUTDIR)/$(RL_BUILD_CLASSES)

With a shorter name, this could be just one line.

make/Images.gmk line 119:

> 117:   RL_DIFFS_OUTPUT_FILE_ARG := 
> $(JDK_IMAGE_DIR)/lib/runtime-image-link.delta
> 118:   RL_MOD_PATH_ARG := $(IMAGES_OUTPUTDIR)/jmods
> 119:   TOOL_RUNTIME_IMAGE_LINK_DELTA_PRODUCER := $(BUILD_JAVA) --add-modules 
> jdk.jlink \

All of these are only used once so should rather be inlined. I think that makes 
it easier to understand and read.

make/Images.gmk line 122:

> 120:   
> --add-exports=jdk.jlink/jdk.tools.jlink.internal.runtimelink=ALL-UNNAMED \
> 121:   --add-exports=java.base/jdk.internal.module=ALL-UNNAMED \
> 122:   --add-exports=java.base/jdk.internal.jimage=ALL-UNNAMED \

These three are repeated in both compilation and runtime so could potentially 
be set in a variable to avoid the duplication.
