+                            Some parts of the build generate programs that are then compiled and executed
+                            to produce other parts of the build. Normally the primary C compiler is used
+                            to do this, but when cross-compiling that would be the cross-compiler and the
+                            resulting program could not be executed. 
+                            On Linux this defaults to <tt>/usr/bin/gcc</tt>; on other platforms it must be

+                  Some build variables exist to support specialized build environments and/or specialized

+                            controlling the Hotspot build target, it ensures that we don't try to copy
+                            any server VM files/directories, and defines a default <tt>jvm.cfg</tt> file
+                            suitable for a client-only environment. Using this in a 64-bit build will
+                            generate a sanity warning as 64-bit client builds are not directly supported.
