Comment(by johnsonlaucn@…):

 Replying to [comment:48 landonf@…]:
 > Regarding FORCE_32BIT_JDK, I believe we should (upstream, in OpenJDK)
 support the use of ARCH_DATA_MODEL to override this value. The problem is
 that we rely on uname -m to determine whether to build amd64/i586, but
 that only returns x86-64 if the kernel is 64-bit itself.

 architecture to build for (via supported_arches and the ${build_arch}
 variable) that we can rely on here.

 Totally agreed.[[BR]]
 Taking ARCH_DATA_MODEL as a variant between 32bit / 64bit is a better idea
 than introducing another variable.[[BR]]


 > Instead of ucontext.h/stdint.h patches, we can use the following in
 vm.make (pulled from later upstream openjdk7 work):

 Agreed.
