git diff to set JAVA_DEFAULT to 25
I'd like to modify JAVA_DEFAULT to 25 and request an exp-run with it.
https://openjdk.org/projects/jdk/25/
JDK 25 reached General Availability on 16 September 2025.
Switching default JDK version will not prevent ports that required older Java
versions from working. In bug #272855 a lot of java ports are made compatible
or pinned to the needed JDK. The OpenJDK25 javac still supports java 8 source
files.
NB: openjdk25 is not support on i386, so the default for i386 stays on 21.
Let's see what the fall out will be by doing an exp-run.
