I am unable to build icedtea-3.0.0 because the compilation fails in the configure stage for OpenJDK. (Note, I'm building this on MUSL, but have been previously able to build IcedTea by using a patch set) First of all, configuration fails at: checking build system type... Invalid Configuration `x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl': machine `x86_64-gentoo-linux' not recognized. This is fixable by replacing autoconf-config.guess and autoconf-config.sub in openjdk/common/autoconf/build-aux (these versions of config.guess and config.sub are many years out of date.) Then, configuration fails once again at: checking for x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc... /usr/bin/x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc configure: Resolving CC (as /usr/bin/x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc) failed, using /usr/bin/x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc directly. checking resolved symbolic links for CC... no symlink configure: The C compiler (located as /usr/bin/x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc) does not seem to be the recommended GCC compiler. configure: The result from running with --version was: "x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc (Gentoo Hardened 5.3.0 p1.0, pie-0.6.5) 5.3.0" configure: The C compiler (located as /usr/bin/x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc) does not seem to be the Clang compiler either. configure: The result from running with --version was: "x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl-gcc (Gentoo Hardened 5.3.0 p1.0, pie-0.6.5) 5.3.0" configure: error: GCC or Clang compiler is required. Try setting --with-tools-dir. Apparently toolchain.m4 believes that the the information gcc prints will always begin with "gcc". After changing these bits, configure and build continues as expected.
Created attachment 437446 [details, diff] Patch to fix toolchain misdetection
Created attachment 437448 [details, diff] Patch that replaces the old autoconf-config.guess/sub with the contents of sys-devel/gnuconfig-20160402
Version 3.0.0 is gone. Closing.
