This is with JDK checked out using "hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/hs-rt jdk9" as of today (May 21, 2014)

JDK configured using "./configure --with-boot-jdk=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8` --with-debug-level=slowdebug --with-jobs=8" and build using "make images"
Comments
Fix Request (8u). Part of making 8u build using Xcode 12. Trivial change, applies cleanly.

Changing: inline void attachCurrentThread(void** env) { to: static inline void attachCurrentThread(void** env) { in ThreadUtilitlies.m will fix the problem.
