Description
The class j.l.annotation.ContainerAnnotation added in CR 7151008 is not built when compiling the JDK.

This is probably because java.lang.annotation is not added to the AUTO_FILES_JAVA_DIRS list in the makefile for reflection and annotations: make/java/java/reflect/Makefile

I have a patch for this that I will send for review on the build-list.
