please send your configure and the version of gcc

you can cherry-pick the commit "FIX(runtime): solve compiler warning with get_shared_archive_path" in dev branch.

I found the reason why throw this error. In centos 8, I run yum install libstdc++-static, occurred an error: Unable to find a match: libstdc++-static. Maybe this why I can't complie kona sucessfully.
However, it's work in contos 7.
Over the last few days, I've encountered some problems about the compiling environment, and I solved it.In order to make others avoid these problem, I wanna write a document about how to compile kona sucessfully with the help of docker. :)

We almostly built Kona JDK on centos6 or centos7. This is a good find that there are some issues in centos 8.
If you can share your documentation, we can share it in the wiki.
