+<h3>OpenJDK Notes</h3>
+<p>
+  The <a href="https://openjdk.dev.java.net/">openjdk</a>
+  project has provided the javac
+  <a href="https://openjdk.dev.java.net/compiler/">compiler</a>
+  as an opensource project. The output of this project is a
+  <code>javac.jar</code> which contains the javac compiler.
+  This compiler may be used with the <code>&lt;javac&gt;</code> task with
+  the use of a "-Xbootstrapclass/p" java argument. The argument needs
+  to be given to the runtime system of the javac executable, so it needs
+  to be prepended with a "-J". For example:
+
+<blockquote><pre>
+  &lt;property name="patched.javac.jar"
+            location="${my.patched.compiler}/dist/lib/javac.jar"/&gt;
+
+  &lt;presetdef name="patched.javac"&gt;
+    &lt;javac fork="yes"&gt;
+      &lt;compilerarg value="-J-Xbootclasspath/p:${patched.javac.jar}"/&gt;
+    &lt;/javac&gt;
+  &lt;/presetdef&gt;
+
+
+  &lt;patched.javac srcdir="src/java" destdir="build/classes"
+                 debug="yes"/&gt;
+</pre></blockquote>
