JDK-8210087 [1] is an issue with the launcher generated for jconsole.
The launcher needs to be compiled with --add-modules ALL-DEFAULT so that
plugins compiled (and run) in an unnamed module can make use of exported
APIs in modules that aren't resolved by jdk.jconsole. The change is trivial:

jconsole is headful so I'm not planning to include a test at this time.
