I saw a failure in my JPRT build (using full JDK 8 + closed repos):

========================================

Looks like a parallel build is happening, and the "$(JDK_IMAGE_DIR)/db/README-JDK.html target" (in jdk/makefiles/Images.gmk) was executed before the "$(MKDIR) -p $(JDK_IMAGE_DIR)/db" was executed in the "$(IMAGES_OUTPUTDIR)/_unzip/%.unzipped" target.

The fix would be to ensure that the destination directory is created before trying to create the file.

The same problem happens with the $(JDK_IMAGE_DIR)/db/3RDPARTY rules as well.
