Cannot compile avian with OpenJDK 8u76b03

[Martin Večeřa]

When using both parameters openjdk and openjdk-src I get

When using just openjdk, I get:

Hi Martin,

Can you tell me what operating system you're using and what version of OpenJDK you're building with?

[Martin Večeřa]

Sorry for the delay, that was MintLinux 17 and ArchLinux, both with the same results.

[Joel Dice]

Thanks. I just reproduced this with OpenJDK 8u91-b14. I'll work on fixing it.
