I'm not sure what the state of the Makefiles are for building with gcc
on Solaris. It has been done in the past, from the artifacts I see in the
Makefiles, however, it won't 'just build', it will take some changes.
In general we focus on one compiler set per OS, the one that has
the most potentia

sh is a horrible programming language whose primary virtue is
portability -- every Unix system since the dark ages has it.
Much of that is lost when replacing #!/bin/sh with #!/bin/bash.
Might as well upgrade to a "real" programming language.

As far as I know, only Ubuntu (and only 8.04?) depends on bash.
No other OS seems to have a problem using plain old antique sh.

Ideally, these sh scripts used in the build process should be changed
to be something else, maybe small Java apps. Someday.

I hear the license terms mean people can't
really talk about the SHCK...

What the JDK
Java (BOOTJDK) is and will always be a requirement to build the JDK,
can't see that ever going away.
Many build tools are already written in Java (see jdk/make/tools)
so I don't see how changing sh scripts to Java changes the build
dependencies.
As far as Ant goes, I have mixed feelings about it
