The fix for cygwin builds and the vpath issue:

6668781: Openjdk windows cygwin build failure: no rule to make linker_md.obj target
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/build/jdk/rev/82c85cfd8402

The deploy workspace had actually reached into the jdk source tree and done it's own javac compile of some of the awt sources. :^( My fix (which I still think is correct), broke some logic in the deploy makefiles.

N/A

Trying the following fix:

######### File: jdk/make/common/Defs.gmk
######### (cd . && sccs diffs  -w -s -b Defs.gmk)

------- Defs.gmk -------

> endif
> ifndef BUILDDIR
>   # Hack, due to deploy repository using this file.
>   BUILDDIR=$(JDK_TOPDIR)/make
