openjdk-6 segfaults and gcc-4.6.1 failures

[Tom Marble <tmarble@info9.net>]

All:

Just a quick note for those interested in building OpenJDK
(6, 7 or 8) in unstable...

I am now getting build failures on amd64... Some of these
seem to be related to gcc 4.6.1 (resolved by using gcc 4.5.3)
and some seem to be a new round of segfaults in
openjdk-6 6b18-1.8.9-0.1.

I will continue to work to find the root cause of the
gcc failure.

I think we need to consider the issues in updating
openjdk-6 to b23 (IcedTea6 trunk). Any opinions on this?

Regards,
