bazel doesn't build with JDK 9.0.1

[korni]

The JDK version is determined by

% /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javac -version
javac 9.0.1

bazel-0.5.2-dist/scripts/bootstrap/buildenv.sh, line 292:

if [[ "$JAVAC_VERSION" =~ javac\ (1\.([789]|[1-9][0-9])).*$ ]]; then
    JAVAC_VERSION=${BASH_REMATCH[1]}

expects something like

% /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_79.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javac -version
javac 1.7.0_79

and thus is unable to retrieve the version number, breaking the build.

see <​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/1132> for an up to date version.

Oh, actually there are two PR's to update bazel. I used this one <​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/1098>. but updated it further to 0.9.0 <​https://github.com/kencu/myports/tree/master/devel/bazel>.

We should really get one of these committed.

In the future, please Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers bazel), if any.
